Decision details

The Board gave consideration to a Joint report of the Alliance Director. Oldham Cares and Associate Director of Oldham Cares Programmes which provided assurance and an update on progress against the implementation of transformation proposals for health and social care funded through the Greater Manchester Transformation Fund.

The report sought approval for the funding of:

•       GP Led Urgent Treatment Service

•       Primary Care Cluster Development Offer

•       Quality Collaborative

•       Cluster Business Development

Members discussed the commercially sensitive information in relation to the proposals and schemes and asked questions about performance management, evaluation, and transparency.

It was also noted that although the schemes were agreed, the vehicle by which delivery would be untaken was not the preferred option for the Board and further conversations would be untaken on the method/vehicle for delivery. Regular updates and live reporting would be provided.

Options Alternatives considered

Option 1 – To agree the recommendations as detailed at section 3 of the report.

Option 2 – Do not agree the recommendations, with a risk that funding would be re-assigned to another GM locality programme.

RESOLVED – That the recommendations as detailed within the commercially sensitive report be approved.
