Issue - meetings

Further to Minute 55 (2 November 2010), received and noted a report from the Chief Executive on the action that he had taken under the urgency procedures contained within paragraph 17 of Article 1, Part B of the Council’s Constitution in authorising the Corporate Director of Adult and Community Services to enter into an agreement with NHS Barking and Dagenham for the continued joint commissioning and delivery of services through formal arrangements under Sections 75 and 256 of the National Health Service Act 2006.

It was also noted that subsequent events outside of the Council’s control meant that NHS Barking and Dagenham was unable to sign the agreements by the initial deadline of 28 January 2011, and this is now expected to take place towards the end of this month.
