Issue - meetings

The Board is asked to consider the report on the above.

The Director of Public Health presented a report, a copy of which had been circulated to each Member and a copy of which appears as 'G' to these Minutes in the Minute Book on the feedback from the development session on Understanding the role of Health and Wellbeing Boards in our developing ICS.

The Board was advised that the session had provided an opportunity to think about the future of partnerships, the development of the Integrated Care System and how Councils and NHS Partners come together.  The Director of Public Health reported that there was an opportunity for Health and Wellbeing Boards to work within an effective system and influence the development of strategy. He explained that the two Board chairs recognised the need to work together articulating the needs of the different areas across the County and making a difference at a local level.  The Board was informed that existing statutory committees continue to be engaged and it was necessary to develop draft proposals on how Health and Wellbeing Boards would fit into the ICS developments.

RESOLVED that the output from the development session be noted.
