Report of the Director of Public Health outlining the Health and Wellbeing Board frequency.

The Board considered the report of the Director of Public Health setting out a proposal for the review of the frequency of meetings of the Board following the establishment of the Joint Commissioning Board which would now lead on much of the Health and Wellbeing functions.  The Board noted that as part of the Health and Social Care Act 2012 there were a number of statutory functions it would remain responsible for but considered these could be met in less meetings per year.

It was suggested that a small group of Board Members meet to review the required frequency of meetings and make recommendation for inclusion into the Council’s Constitution Review at the May Annual General Meeting.

RESOLVED:

(i)  That a small group be formed to make recommendation for inclusion into the Council’s Constitution Review; and

(ii)  That the frequency of future Health and Wellbeing Board would be confirmed as part of the Council’s Constitutional Review at the May Annual General Meeting.
