Issue - meetings

To receive and note the attached PowerPoint presentation.

Sarah Longdon introduced the report by way of a powerpoint presentation, which set out the Business Plan and gave a programme update.

Officers responded to Board Members’ comments and requests for clarification, details included:

• Officers could ensure that a deep dive on some programmes each meeting were facilitated.
• A deep dive would take place in relation to health protection – it was anticipated that this would be in October.
• A national Suicide Prevention Strategy was due to be published in the summer and would provide the opportunity for the Board to review localised work on suicide prevention, the real-time surveillance system and what the Strategy contains.
• A deep dive relating to children’s services was already on the forward Plan for the June Meeting.

The Chairman thanked Officers for the presentation and commended the format of data presentation, commenting that its simplistic layout made it far easier to interpret, identify trends and therefore aid discussion.
