Agenda item

The meeting noted the announcement in the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s Budget of the provision of additional funding for adult social care in 2017/18, by bringing forward future years’ allocations of the Better Care Fund.  Arrangements were in hand to consider the rules relating to the use of this funding and how it might be allocated for consideration at SSDG and then the Board meeting in June 2017.

RESOLVED that the position be noted.
