Consideration was given work carried out to promote greater jointness between Cheshire East Council and the Central and Eastern Cheshire Primary Care Trust, and to a programme of further work. 

RESOLVED

For the reasons set out in the report: -

1. That the Council should seek to achieve greater jointness between itself and Central and Eastern Cheshire Primary Care Trust and other players within the local NHS, where such jointness seems likely to be in the best interests of Cheshire East people.

2. That the Strategic Director (People) be authorised to negotiate with relevant NHS partners about the agenda of Jointness which is set out in Appendix 1 to the report.

3. That the Strategic Director (People) be required to report to the Health and Adult Social Care Scrutiny Committee on the progress of those negotiations, and to bring before the Cabinet any matters requiring significant decisions.

Councillor R Domleo left the meeting after consideration of this item and did not return.
