Conclusions and recommendations
Recommendation on appointment
1. The
Committee held the hearing on 9 September 2010 and we are pleased
to endorse Dame Jo Williams' candidacy for the post. (Paragraph
1)
Issues relating to the work of
the Care Quality Commission
2. We
agree with Dame Jo that although the CQC has made encouraging
progress in many areas of its agenda, a substantial number of
issues remain. (Paragraph 2)
3. The
challenging nature of the reorganisation process and the need
to ensure continuity is a specific reason for our support of Dame
Jo's candidacy. (Paragraph 3)
4. We
believe that the CQC's operations should be subject to regular
scrutiny by the Committee. We therefore propose to review the
work of the CQC on an annual basis, and intend to invite Dame
Jo to appear before the Committee again in the summer of 2011.
(Paragraph 8)
