(6) If, in the course of exercising its functions, a Foundation Patients' Forum becomes aware of any matter which in its view—
(a) should be considered by a relevant overview and scrutiny committee, the Forum may refer that matter to the committee,
(b) should be brought to the attention of the Commission for Patient and Public Involvement in Health, it may refer that matter to the Commission.
(7) Subsection (6) does not prejudice the power of a Foundation Patients' Forum to make such other representations or referrals as it thinks fit, to such persons or bodies as it thinks fit about matters arising in the course of its exercising its functions.
(8) An NHS Trust or public benefit corporation exercising its powers under sections 4(4)(b) or 5(7)(b) as the case may be shall be obliged to have regard to and take account of the reports and recommendations of the Foundation Patients' Forum.
