Decision details

Cabinet received a report on the terms of reference for the Cheshire East Shadow Health and Wellbeing Board.

Council in December 2011 had raised a number of concerns in respect of the proposed terms of reference, relating primarily to member representation on the Board and voting rights of Board members.

It was noted that the Health and Social Care Bill had now been passed and it would be necessary to consider the implications of the legislation and subsequent guidance before the matter could be progressed further.

RESOLVED

That Cabinet supports the recommendation that further work on the Health and Wellbeing Board’s terms of reference is paused until the implications of the Health and Social Care Act have been fully assessed and further guidance has been received.
