The Public Health System Accountabilities Subcommittee (PHSA) supports the Capacity Review Committee (CRC) by advising and assisting in the development of :

1. Recommendations on accountability mechanisms and practices for individual health units which take into consideration current practices as well as new or innovative means to ensure accountability.
2. Proposed accountability mechanisms for the public health system as a whole.
3. Accountability mechanisms – at the local health unit or provincial level as appropriate – shall have regard to the following key stakeholders :
• Local boards of health
• Obligated municipalities
• Public Health Division
• Other ministries funding public health programs and services
• The public

The work of the PHSA subcommittee will draw on evidence-based practices and research. It will consider capacity issues tied to various mechanisms, both at the organizational and human resource levels.

The Public Health System Accountabilities Subcommittee reports to the CRC and is chaired by Ms. Lori G. Chow, a CRC member. The Subcommittee will have a sunset date of December 31, 2005, unless the CRC and the Ministry agree to extend this date.
