"KOSHH campaigners would like to know more about Richard Noble's background and whether his current day job represents a conflict of interest.," said a spokesperson.
"While the Epsom-St Helier Trust website says Mr Noble does not have any interests which conflict with this role, it is indeed curious that he works for Nomura International, which does indeed have interests in the business of healthcare. The website also clearly states that he has experience in privatisation work - why would this be a plus point for him in this role?"
