To receive a report from Enfield CCG.

(TO FOLLOW)

RECEIVED the briefing note from Enfield CCG (sent to follow).

NOTED

The introduction by Graham MacDougall, including:

•  The 2019 Enfield Children & Young People Local Transformation Plan was in the process of being drafted and would be published by 31 October 2019, and the due governance processes were being gone through.

•  This was a system plan, involving the local authority and CCG and VCS, but funding came through the CCG.

•  Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) was a significant priority for the NHS. Enfield was a Wave 2 trailblazer area and funding was to be allocated to be focussed into schools and based around the clinical model, and overseen by a steering group.

IN RESPONSE comments and questions were received, including:

1.    It was confirmed that the main provider would be Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust. There would be a process around which schools were prioritised. Headteachers would make referrals. The money was purely for clinical posts.

2.    Members questioned the small amount of the funding, and the need for preventative work. It was advised that the CCG invested into CAMHS and this money was in addition.

AGREED that Health and Wellbeing Board noted the briefing note.
