Issue - meetings

The Board received a report from the Director of Public Health, which presented the topic brief for the Health Policy and Performance Board 2023-24 scrutiny review.

At the February meeting of the Board, and as part of Member involvement in the business planning process, Public Health was discussed as an area for consideration for the next scrutiny review.  It was agreed that ‘Health inequalities across Halton and approaches to reducing them’ would be the focus of the 2023-24 scrutiny review.

The report outlined the main areas to be considered and a detailed Topic Brief, explaining the rationale and scope of the group, was appended to the report.

It was agreed that all Members of the Board be invited to participate in the scrutiny review.

RESOLVED: That the Board

1)    note the report; and

2)    approves the topic brief.
