To consider a report of the Corporate Director Children, Families and Wellbeing.

The Deputy Director, Children, Families and Wellbeing submitted a report which provided details of the health and social care Integration Transformation Fund (ITF). The report explained that the June 2013 Spending Round had announced a fund of £3.8 billion nationally to ensure closer integration of health and social care services from 2015/16. The Local Government Association and NHS England then published a joint statement in August 2013 about this funding, known as the health and social care Integration Transformation Fund (ITF), outlining how the fund could work and the next steps to be taken.

RESOLVED: That the Health and Wellbeing Board approve the report.
