What is the purpose of the Advisory Group and who sits on it?

The Advisory Group (AG) has been established as an independent body without responsibility for the management of MiC. Its relationship with MiC is governed by a Policy & Procedure Statement (PPS) agreed between MiC and the AG. Its members are respected clinicians, academics and trainers, who act as a point of reference for MiC management.
