Publication Scheme

Class 1 – Who we are and what we do

Practice details, information about our Practice team and our opening times are all published on our website. This information can be accessed via the About Us page. 

Class 2 – What we spend and how we spend it

The Practice receives money from NHS Wales according to its contract for national General Medical Services in exchange for services provided for patients.

This information can be obtained on request in writing to the Practice Manager. The Practice Manager can be contacted at Practice.Manager.W95034@wales.nhs.uk

There may be circumstances where material cannot be released because it is confidential or commercial information or the appropriate officer designated for these purposes, under the Act, has taken the view that it may be prejudicial to the conduct of the Practice’s affairs.

If this is the case, we will respond to your FOI request with a formal letter acknowledging the reasons why we are unable to give you this information.

We do not wish to publish our annual salaries, but they are available on request.

Class 3 – What our priorities are and how we are doing

  • Working closely with our Bridgend Cluster colleagues to develop services for patients across Bridgend. 
  • Working towards achieving required standards within the Welsh Government QAIF (Quality and Information Framework), Access Standards, Medicines Management, Patient Safety, CGPSAT, IG toolkit and Healthier Wales.
  • The practice has not had an inspection for a while but is probably due to be inspected by HIW (Health Inspectorate Wales ) in the near future. This report will then be published here.

Class 4 – How we make decisions

The Practice has a committee that is made up of all the partners.

The committee meets on a weekly basis. Extracts from these meetings can be obtained on request in writing to the Practice Manager, stating the information you are interested in. The Practice Manager can be contacted at Practice.Manager.W95034@wales.nhs.uk. Records of these meetings cover a wide variety of topics including confidential patient information which is why we are not able to provide copies of the minutes.
