Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP)
The Advisory Committee on Dangerous Pathogens (ACDP) is a UK-wide advisory non-departmental public body. It was established in 1981, and the terms of reference were revised in 1991 to allow for a wider remit. The current terms of reference of the ACDP are: "To advise the Health and Safety Executive, and Ministers for the Department of Health and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, and their counterparts under devolution in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, as required, on all aspects of hazards and risks to workers and others from exposure to pathogens". The Committee comprises a Chairman and up to 17 members. The membership is tripartite, including scientific experts, employer representatives and employee representatives. The ACDP meets three times a year and its work can be broadly divided into two areas:
