Minutes:

RECEIVED the report from Enfield Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), providing an update on developing the North Central London (NCL) Sustainability and Transformation Plan (STP).

 

NOTED

 

Dr Mo Abedi (Chair, Enfield CCG) introduced the report, highlighting the following:

?  The report provided a web link to the NCL STP strategy paper.

?  The draft STP was submitted to NHS England on 21 October 2016.

?  Development of the STP would be undertaken in accordance with the NHS England (London) assurance process.

?  A further update would be submitted to NHS England by the end of January rather than on 23 December as detailed in the report.

?  There would be ongoing engagement through the workstreams, and formal engagement would go online by January.

 

IN RESPONSE to the report, the following comments were received:

 

1.    Ray James advised that there was likely to be a suggestion that the Chair of Health and Wellbeing Board would be asked for views on involvement in governance and oversight going forward. Plans to recruit an accountable officer across the five CCGs would be happening soon.

2.    In response to Deborah Fowler’s queries regarding engagement and consultation, it was advised that a separate workstream in relation to communications and engagement was likely by January, and more information would be provided when available. It was recognised that engagement could have been done better thus far, and there was a commitment to improve

3.    Vivien Giladi expressed concerns regarding how the development of the STP was being presented, the absence of detail, and that governance was weak. As the representative of the voluntary sector she had serious reservations that the STP was being presented as a ‘done deal’, and about whether the STP was deliverable.

4.    Councillor Krystle Fonyonga arrived at the meeting at this point.

5.    Councillor Alev Cazimoglu considered it difficult to comment on the STP due to lack of detail, or to be supportive at this stage.

6.    Ray James responded to concerns raised, and that this was still ‘a plan for a plan’ and consultation was a statutory requirement.

7.    Dr Mo Abedi confirmed that there was a clinical case for change, and that transformation of relationships throughout the system was key.

8.    Councillor Taylor in summary emphasised the importance of transparency and of early engagement before decisions were made, and noted that Overview and Scrutiny were the principal interrogator for LB Enfield.

 

AGREED that the Health and Wellbeing Board noted the North Central London Sustainability and Transformation Plan update and noted the next steps to inform further development of the NCL STP.

 

Councillor Taylor apologised that he had to leave the meeting at this point, and Dr Mo Abedi acted as Chair for the remainder of the meeting.
