Issue - meetings

          The Board considered a report which outlined the outcome of the Health and Social Care Policy and Performance Board (PPB) scrutiny topic review of Mental Health Services in the Borough. A key focus of the review was to examine the services delivered by Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust. The Topic Group had met on several occasions, and the final report was attached as Appendix One.

          It was noted that at its meeting in November, the Health and Social Care PPB had approved 14 recommendations, and these had been included in an action plan, for which a small task and finish group would be formed with representation from the Council, the Integrated Care Board and Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust. The Board was requested to approve the report and to give support for the implementation of the action plan.

          RESOLVED: That the Board ratify the action plan for implementation.
