To consider a report of the Corporate Director of Commissioning.

The Executive Member for Health and Wellbeingsubmitted a report whose purpose was to update the Executive on the work undertaken to date and to provide a briefing on the proposed future programme approach. In discussion, Members noted a request that the Health Scrutiny Committee be kept advised of developments in the proposed programme approach; this suggestion was endorsed, subject to the observation that the nature of the implementation process implied time dependencies which might not always readily align with the Committee’s ideal timescales.

            RESOLVED - That the content of the report be noted, in particular:

1.    The overview, principles and objectives of the proposed programme approach

2.    The timeline and process to agreeing a new stability partner

3.    The roles and responsibilities of each organisation

4.    The key risks for the programme

5.    The procurement process to be administered.
