Lay Council member and Chair of the Finance and Performance Committee, Michael Carroll, has resigned from his positions with the General Dental Council (GDC). He will leave the GDC in October 2016. He said: "It is with considerable regret that due to ever increasing demands for my time from a combination of personal, business and charity work activities, that I felt it necessary to resign from my current GDC roles.”
Michael was appointed to the Council in October 2013 but has concluded that personal commitments make it difficult to continue with his work as a Council Member and Chair of the Finance and Performance Committee (FPC).
Commenting on his departure, Chief Executive of the General Dental Council Ian Brack, said: "I want to thank Michael for his significant support for the GDC. His stewardship of the Finance and Performance Committee has been instrumental in helping to develop our management information and financial forecasting capabilities. We are now in a position where we have a far better understanding of our productivity and costs, and through improved forecasting, we can identify problems earlier so we are able to take the necessary action. These tools will be of key importance in helping us to become an efficient and high performing organisation. We wish Michael all the best in his future endeavours."
Michael Carroll said: "It is with considerable regret that due to ever increasing demands for my time from a combination of personal, business and charity work activities, that I felt it necessary to reprioritise and thus resign from my current GDC roles. As chair of the FPC I wish to record my sincere thanks to the whole hearted efforts of the entire team which I have enjoyed leading over these last two and a half years. Since its inception in 2014, and consistent with advancing the high performance aspirations of a modern day organisation, very significant progress has been made in the delivery of a financial and performance agenda underpinned by the introduction of new business processes and a range of performance management tools. I am sure that this progress will continue unabated and that the GDC will benefit as the organisation strives to successfully meet the challenges and opportunities in the dental arena."
