All staff are required to declare any interests which may cause a conflict in doing their day to day work, together with any gifts and hospitality received during the course of their work.   

In particular the Trust asks that all 'decision making staff', defined as those who are considered as Very Senior Managers and all staff on Agenda for Change pay scales 8d and above and those in equivalent clinical roles, such as consultants, as well as those people who can influence purchasing decisions, to make an annual declaration of interests. This includes providing a Nil Return where they have nothing to declare. This information is then published for transparency and public scrutiny.

Current Register

The latest register is available via our dedicated Declare online system for Managing Declarations of Interests, Gifts and Hospitality, and includes interests declared by the Board of Directors and senior decision-makers.

Each year NHS Trusts are required to self-certify that they can meet the obligations set out in the NHS Provider Licence. Although NHS Trusts are exempt from needing the provider licence, directions from the Secretary of State require NHS Improvement to ensure that NHS Trusts comply with conditions equivalent to the licence as it deems appropriate. This is a retrospective declaration stating whether we were satisfied that we took the necessary precautions in the last financial year (2019/20).

There are two conditions which the Trust is required to sign off against:

The provider has taken all precautions necessary to comply with the licence, NHS Acts and NHS Constitution (Condition G6(3)).

• The provider has complied with required governance arrangements (Condition FT4(8)).
• NHS Trusts are specifically required to publish the declaration for general condition 6.

The Trust Board considered the evidence to support compliance against this conditions at its meeting held on 17 June 2020 and confirmed that it was compliant. More detail on the process and evidence considered can be downloaded in the Board paper (pdf fomat)

For more information on the self-assessment please contact the Company Secretary via email on bhrut.trust.secretary@nhs.net
