In July 1975 it was agreed that a Conference of Royal Colleges and their Faculties of Medicine in the UK should be formed. Sir Rodney Smith was proposed as the first chairman. Membership was to include one representative from each constituent member. It was envisaged that, in addition to the UK Conference, the Scottish Colleges and perhaps those in England and Wales would need to meet separately from time to time. In October 1976 the name was changed to the Conference of Medical Royal Colleges.

The provenance of the records listed below is not clear, but it is likely that most were removed from the general correspondence file series of the College Presidents to form a subject-based series of Conference material. An exception is the material at C2/3 which appears to be the official papers of the College President as chairman, 1983-1990.

Papers of the Conference of Royal Colleges and their Faculties of Medicine in the UK, comprising correspondence including papers concerning the formation of the Conference from the Standing Committee, 1976-1984; Minutes, agenda, papers and related correspondence, 1975-1984; College Presidents' correspondence and papers as Chairman of the Conference, 1983-1990.

No further accruals are expected. Any material of permanent value relating to the Conference after 1990 will be retained within its original administrative context, not removed to this series.

Arranged in files as given in scope and content.

Records are open for research 20 years after last date in volume or on file.

Copyright is vested in the College.
