The Hospital & Transport Surge Capacity (HTSC) committee was set up at the beginning of March 2020 to advise the Risk Management Group on maximum hospital and patient transport capacity. In June 2020 the KCE was given the task of evaluating how the committee had functioned during the first wave of the epidemic and the way the hospitals responded to the measures it had enacted.
