    Name of Meeting Board Date of Meeting 28 March 2019 Agenda item: 9.2.280319 Development of a Mid and South West Wales Regional Centre of Excellence Cellular Pathology Laboratory, Regional Diagnostic Immunology Laboratory & Regional Medical Microbiology Facility at Morriston Hospital, Swansea Executive lead: Dr Quentin Sandifer, Executive Director of Public Health Services and Medical Director Author: Ms Heather Edwards, Business Planning Manager, Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board, with amendment where necessary by Dr Quentin Sandifer, Executive Director of Public Health Services and Medical Director Approval/Scrutiny Business Executive Team, 18 March 2019 route: Purpose To seek Board approval on the Strategic Outline Case (SOC) prior to submission to Welsh Government. Nationally NHS Pathology services face a number of challenges. Within the Mid and South West Wales’ region, Hywel Dda University Health Board (HDUHB), Abertawe Bro Morgannwg University Health Board (ABMUHB) and Public Health Wales NHS Trust (PHW) are struggling to manage workforce and sustainability pressures, to maintain quality and safety issues and to meet clinically driven targets. Without investment in sustainable services we cannot deliver essential improvements and fit for purpose laboratories. Investment would allow us to co-locate and develop regionalised services and to support more innovative and sustainable service models which could be future-proofed, and be flexible enough, to respond to changing demand, new technologies and innovations. In 2017 a South West Wales Regional Pathology Reconfiguration Project Board was established to draft a Strategic Outline Business Case (SOC) to address these regional challenges in line with the national direction of travel for regional pathology services.

South West Wales Partnership A further meeting took place on 20 th July between Swansea University and Swansea, Neath Port Talbot and Carmarthenshire Councils to explore the development together of shared archive provision for south west Wales. The outcome of the meeting was the statement which is attached at Appendix 1, drafted with the aid of archival consultant Elizabeth Oxborrow-Cowan. Each partner in the group is seeking approval for this statement from its governing committee and (in the case of West Glamorgan Archive Service) from each of its parent authorities. Members are requested to approve the use of Archive Service reserves to make the appropriate contribution towards consultancy fees to further investigate joint service options with Swansea University and Carmarthenshire County Council. It is anticipated that a one-third share will cost the Service approximately £5,000. 2.

  • Post Medieval and Modern
    A Research Framework for the Archaeology of Wales Select Bibliography, Southwest Wales Post Medieval and Modern A Research Framework for the Archaeology of Wales Southwest Wales – Post Medieval, bibliography 22/12/2003 This list is drawn from a number of sources : a small number derive from the original audit by Cambria Archaeology; more from a trawl through Ceredigion County Library, Aberystwyth; some from published bibliographies, but most from an incomplete search of current periodical literature. The compiler does not claim to have run all these to earth at first hand, so some page references, the names of publishers and some places of publication are missing. It should be noted that not all apparently authoritative published bibliographies - on the web and off it - are necessarily as complete as might be expected. Some may be biased by the interests or prejudices of their compilers. The Website on Mining Bilbiography is a good example. It excludes certain materials on processing and hydrology, and omits virtually everything the present writer has written on dating mines! The present writer regrets if his equally subjective selection inadvertently omits anything significant to the interests of its readers, but welcomes notification of it.
