The Board:
(i) Reviewed the overarching dashboard;
(ii) Noted the further detail provided on specific indicators and responses to the questions raised and that further updates would be provided in due course; and,
(iii) Welcomed the assurance given by Conor Burke that the Barking Community Hospital Birthing Centre would not close and the issue had only been raised as a risk because negotiations were being held with Barts Health NHS Trust, however should these not be successful other service providers would be approached.
(iv) Noted that further to Minute 59, 28 October 2014, the London Ambulance Service had been asked by the CCG to provide a formal response in regards to Infant Deaths and this was currently awaited.
