Clinical Waste
Minutes:
It was noted that there was no alignment across the 3 authorities on the issue of clinical waste collection.
Barnsley did not collect clinical waste; Rotherham did collect it and received a financial contribution from the Rotherham Clinical Commissioning Group.
A report had been prepared for Doncaster’s Health and Wellbeing Board and the Better Care Fund proposing that Doncaster’s Clinical Commissioning Group continue to fund the collection of sharps for the current financial year and joint fund the service with the Council for 2021/22. Nothing had changed in relation to kerbside clinical waste collection.
Resolved:- That the report be noted.
