Sustainability and Transformation Plan
Verbal update by Chris Edwards, Rotherham Clinical Commissioning Group
Minutes:
Chris Edward, CCG, reported that the Plan had been published on Friday afternoon (11th November) in accordance with NHS England’s agreement.
The Plan’s ambition, vision and priorities were supported by himself, the Council, Foundation Trust and RDaSH but recognised that it now needed to be considered through the formal governance processes as part of the consultation period.
Sharon Kemp stated that all the ambitions contained therein were supported but there was no specific detail behind them and until there was that further detail, it was not possible to consider the position of how the actions and priorities be achieved. The key issue for each of the organisations was to ensure Member involvement and the opportunity to reflect and consider.
The Chairman reported that Sir Andrew Cash had called together all Health and Wellbeing Board Chairs across South Yorkshire and Bassetlaw. It was acknowledged that there were some very good principles in the document which could be signed off but the Appendices containing the financial information and outcomes had not been seen as yet.
There was a meeting the following day of the regional Chairs and other senior members of Health and Wellbeing Boards, where the STP was the main agenda item.. The importance of Health and Wellbeing Boards and their role and what it meant in practice had yet to be fully revealed.
Resolved:- That the update be noted and a dedicated slot on the next meeting be allocated to look at the SRP in more detail.
