Report of Rachel Robinson, Executive Director of Health
REPORT TO FOLLOW
Decision:
RESOLVED:
That Cabinet endorsed the next steps as out lined in the report.
Minutes:
Members were reminded that it was agreed to bring a report back to Cabinet to respond to the recommendations of the Task and Finish Group. This report set out that response and the prioritisation of the recommendations within the report.
Members noted that the Council was in the process of adopting five of the recommendations within the next 6-12 months, with the remaining recommendations being considered in the medium term (12 months plus). The Leader confirmed that the preferred approach was to deal with the recommendations in smaller sections and that a response would be forwarded to the Chair of the Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee. Furthermore, updates would be taken back to the committee on a six monthly basis.
The Chair of the Task and Finish Group requested that an update is provided when a recommendation had been achieved.
RESOLVED:
That Cabinet endorsed the next steps as out lined in the report.
