An efficient and effective Assurance Framework (AF) is a fundamental component of good governance. Whilst traditionally the AF focused on risks, controls and assurances within the organisation with the creation of ICBs AFs will need to reflect the impact of system level risks.
This briefing summarises the results of a survey of NHS Foundation Trust/Trust Board members and other relevant personnel collating views on the utilisation and effectiveness of the AF within their organisations. Its aim is to support NHS organisations in understanding current Board level views of the AF.
