Agenda item

The meeting considered the minutes from the South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw Sustainability and Transformation Plan Collaborative Partnership Board meetings held on 17^th March and 7^th April, 2017.  The meeting noted the importance of the Memorandum of Understanding in making progress on the Sustainability and Transformation Plan.  Whilst the principle that service users should be no worse off, in terms of the quality of outcomes, as the broad context for the transformation process was understood, there was a need to consider how this played out in detailed proposals in terms of the ability of the Council to support this.  Whilst the need for some specialist treatment to be undertaken regionally or sub-regionally was acknowledged, it also seemed likely that some aspects of the care pathway could be provided locally/in the community and the overall impact on service users would be a key consideration in making a judgement about the better integration of services.

RESOLVED that the minutes be received.
