1 (1) Sub-paragraph (2) applies where the Welsh Ministers are satisfied that a committee formed for Wales is representative of—

(a) any category of persons (other than a category mentioned in section 190(2)) who provide services forming part of the health service, or

(b) two or more of any of the categories mentioned in that subsection and paragraph (a).

(2) Where this sub-paragraph applies and the Welsh Ministers are satisfied that it is in the interests of the health service to recognise the committee, the Welsh Ministers must recognise the committee and specify a name for it.

(3) Where a committee recognised under sub-paragraph (2) appears to the Welsh Ministers to represent categories of persons which include a category mentioned in section 190(2), the Welsh Ministers are not required by virtue of that subsection to recognise a committee representing persons of that category.
