Report of the Chief Executive.

The Cabinet considered the report of the Chief Executive that detailed an update on the proposed arrangements for the next phase of development of the place-based approach to Integrated Health and Care in Sefton, referred to as an Integrated Care Partnership

Decisions Made:    That:

(1)           the progress made to date by the Council and its Partners in establishing the Integrated Care Partnership be noted;

(2)           the leadership and support systems to deliver the changes be agreed and that the Executive Director of Adult Social Care and Health be designated as Place Lead, be agreed; and

(3)           regular progress reports be presented to the Health and Well Being Board and Cabinet with any Key Decisions escalated as required, be agreed.

Reasons for the Decisions:

Proposed legislative changes once enacted will require new arrangements to be put in place. The report sets out the infrastructure needed to achieve this.

Alternative Options Considered and Rejected:

Proposed legislative changes once enacted will require new arrangements to be put in place and so doing nothing is not an option.
