No specific guidance has been given to trusts on the timing and manner of publication of agendas for board meetings. However, last year the NHS Leadership Academy published The Healthy NHS Board 2013 - Principles for Good Governance, which advises on wider governance arrangements for trust boards, including board agenda planning and management.
