Scotland Steering Group membership
The Midwifery 2020 Government Leads have recently reviewed the structures that were initially set up to support this programme of work across the UK, and following this review a decision has been taken to disband the Scotland Steering Group. It was recognised that Scotland already has existing structures in place where Midwifery 2020 is regularly discussed as a standing agenda item, through the Lead Midwives Scotland Group, the Maternity Services Action Group and the Scottish Executive Nurse Director Group (SEND) meetings and this cascading of information through these Groups made the Midwifery 2020 Scotland Steering Group's role superfluous. |

Cascading of information through these Groups made the Midwifery 2020 Scotland Steering Group's role superfluous. |
