Issue - meetings

Bruce Morris, Divisional Director Adult Social Care, presented the report and advised that the service had been operational since June 2014 and LBBD had hosted the service for the initial 12 months.  A review had been undertaken during the summer and it had been concluded that the majority of activity and residents were based in Havering, and as a result the service should be hosted by Havering. 

The Board:

(i)  Agreed to the transfer of hosting arrangements to the London Borough of Havering and delegate authority to the Corporate Director of Adult and Community Services to finalise the transfer, including the staffing arrangements detailed in the report; and

(ii)  Delegated authority to the Corporate Director of Adult and Community Services to sign a deed of variation to the Section 75 arrangement to formalise the transfer.
