title: PCG boards. Social climbers.
abstract: A national survey of PCG chief executives and social services representatives on PCG boards showed that most consider the social services role 'very useful'. Most social services representatives spent two to four days a month on PCG business. Two-thirds felt they needed more time. Almost half felt they had little or no support. Better feedback mechanisms are needed for social services representatives.
