Issue - meetings

The Director of Transition (DOT) at BHR CCGs presented a report on a review that had been undertaken with a view to building on the strength of partnerships in Barking and Dagenham, Havering, and Redbridge. A workshop was held in November 2020 with the delivery group where priorities were identified.

National guidance had been issued in relation to integrated care systems and it discussed the development of care systems by 2022. This would be developed in relation to North East London and how this would fit with the move to a single CCG.

The Health and Wellbeing Board was asked to approve the new Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Integrated Care Partnership Board that would, subject to approval, come into force on 1^st April 2021. The DOT explained that the new ToR were necessary as the Board would be taking on responsibility for a broader range of functions. The ToR have been reviewed by legal advisors and by governance leads in each partner organization. As some statutory decisions would remain the responsibility of the CCG, the ToR was in two parts and Part 2 would be restricted to CCG members only.

The Health and Wellbeing Board resolved to agree to the implementation of the new Terms of Reference for the Integrated Care Partnership Board, and that the new Terms of Reference would come into force on 1^st April 2021.
