Consideration was given to the recommendations of the Corporate Policy Committee in respect of the proposed updates to the terms of  reference of the Cheshire East Health and Wellbeing Board.

To consider proposed updates to the terms of reference of the Cheshire East Health and Wellbeing Board.

The Committee considered a report setting out proposed updates to the terms of reference of the Cheshire East Health and Wellbeing Board.

The Health and Care Act 2022 and a Local Government Association facilitated review of the Health and Wellbeing Board had led to the need to update the Board’s terms of reference. The report and Appendix 1 highlighted the required changes.

The Health and Wellbeing Board on 27^th June 2023 recommended to the Corporate Policy Committee that full Council be recommended to adopt the revised terms of reference.

Members thanked all those who had worked on producing the revised terms of reference, including Guy Kilminster and his team.

The Chair commented that the thinking behind the changes was to involve more people outside of the strict health sphere and to recognise the wider determinants of health.

RESOLVED (unanimously)

That the Committee recommends to full Council that the revised terms of reference of the Cheshire East Health and Wellbeing Board be adopted.
