Conflicts of interest (CoI) were identified for four individuals. Once identified, CoI were managed by the Senior Responsible Officer with support from procurement colleagues and ICB Market Management leads, with legal advice taken, where appropriate. One conflicted individual was substantively employed by a potential bidder as a Dermatology Programme Director. This individual did not participate in the evaluation or moderation meetings. One conflicted individual was a GP clinical lead for Dermatology in one of the localities (Heywood, Middleton, Rochdale (HMR)) that was part of a potential bidder. This individual did not participate in the evaluation or moderation meetings. One conflicted individual was a GP clinical lead aligned to the Health and Care Service Review Programme Board that works from one of the localities (Salford) that was part of a potential bidder. This individual did not participate in the evaluation or moderation meetings. The fourth individual was substantively employed by a potential bidder as a Consultant Dermatologist and was initially excluded from the process in advance of ITT being published. However, as their CoI related to their employment at one of the potential bidders, this conflict was removed once the potential bidder withdrew from the bidding process. A new CoI form was completed and authorised, and this individual did participate in the evaluation and moderation meetings.",
