The Committee is invited to review the outcomes of the 10^th November 2014 meeting, including the recommendation that a thorough mapping exercise of hospital pharmacy specialisation be conducted. If accepting that recommendation, the Committee should delegate and assign the parameters, timelines and leadership of that activity, taking note of any background or preparatory papers provided to Committee Members in advance of the meeting by the EAHP secretariat.

The Committee should give consideration to other items of activity to be overseen in the calendar year in order to assist the creation of the common training framework, and the timescales and methods of delivery. This might include activities to ensure the engagement and input at an early stage by relevant competent authorities and national Government ministries.

• David Preece’s literature review of relevant published material (in collaboration with Robert Gordon University); 
• EAHP’s survey activity in 2015 
• EAHP’s Good Practice Initiatives Programme
