Issue - meetings

Purpose

To share with the Cabinet details of Portsmouth Youth Offending Team's (PYOT) Annual Youth Justice Strategic Plan 2019/20 (Appendix 1) and seek approval for that Plan.

RECOMMENDED that Council approve the plan and priorities set out within it.

DECISIONS

The Cabinet:

1.    Noted that Aquind are seeking to develop an electricity Interconnector between the UK and France with a converter station in Lovedean.  They are proposing to "land" the high voltage DC (HVDC) electricity cable at Eastney and run it up through Portsmouth to the converter station at Lovedean.

2.    Noted that despite representations from Portsmouth City Council that the Aquind proposal should be determined by the relevant local planning authorities (including Portsmouth City Council), the Government has decided that the proposal was a 'Nationally Significant Infrastructure Project' that should be determined by the Secretary of State through the Development Consent Order process.

3.    Agreed to seek the support of Full Council to reinforce the Cabinet's objection to the route of the HVDC cable whilst also working constructively with Aquind and other stakeholders.

4.    Agreed that the Council responds to this proposal in a coordinated way and where possible works with neighbouring councils on any common approaches.

5.  Noted that any additional external costs incurred in the current year associated with the need to make an informed and considered response to the proposal will be met from the Council's Corporate Contingency.

Purpose.

Portsmouth City Council (PCC) and NHS Portsmouth Clinical Commissioning Group (PCCG) have continued to develop and deliver successful integrated working across health and care for the City, as described by the shared Health & Care Portsmouth programme of work. During 2018/19 the two organisations took significant steps to integrate key statutory functions, establishing a single operating model for the planning and delivery of Health & Care Portsmouth.

The purpose of this paper is to update on progress of this Health & Care Portsmouth operating model since proposals were adopted by the PCCG’s Governing Body and the Portsmouth Health and Wellbeing Board in November and approved by PCC's Cabinet in February 2019.

Based on the learning gained from implementing the operating model and in response to the call from the Cabinet and Governing Body to seek further opportunities for deeper integration, this paper also sets out the benefits case and options to achieve this.

RECOMMENDED that the Cabinet:

a.    Note the progress so far on the integration of PCC and PCCG functions in support of the Health and Care Portsmouth operating model

b.    Agree the proposals for further integration set out at section 13 of this report, including the preferred option for integrating of PCCG Accountable Officer and PCC Chief Executive functions.
