Citizens Council

Although NICE decisions are based on evidence provided by clinicians, researchers and patient experts, they are set against a background of social values and judgments. NICE (and the independent committees that advise it) must take into account what the public thinks about these key issues. For this reason NICE set up a Citizens Council to bring the views and opinions of the public to NICE’s decision-making.

Surveys, focus-groups and other work

NICE occasionally commissions work on patient, carer and community views to inform guidance development.
