Time commitment: Committee members are expected to attend one half day committee meeting and one half day scoping workshop and to spend time reading committee documents and helping to produce consultation documents.
Remuneration: The position of committee member is unpaid. Our committees usually meet virtually using online software, but NICE will pay reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including train fares and hotel costs when necessary, for attending in-person committee meetings.More information can be found here.
Other expenses: NICE recognises that in some circumstances individuals will need to arrange for carers or support workers to accompany them to a meeting, or to take over unpaid caring responsibilities while they are at a meeting – this includes childcare or care of a family member with a disability or other additional needs. The circumstances in which NICE can provide reimbursement for such costs are outlined in the non-staff reimbursement policy.
