This document sets out the terms of reference for the UK National Screening Committee (UK NSC) Research and Methodology Group (RMG).

It supports the following recommendation made by the 4 UK chief medical officers (CMOs) for the expanded remit of the UK NSC following the independent review of adult screening programmes in England:

In order to foster greater horizon scanning and research links the UK NSC should:

  • hold an annual horizon scanning forum to identify potential developments relating to screening
  • establish a research sub-group to keep abreast of ongoing research related to screening, identify research requirements, and advise on mechanisms to address them
