The matter involved a key decision first identified in the Forward Plan dated July 2009.

(1)  the strategic direction outlined in this report be noted,

 

(2)  the extension of existing arrangements for Intermediate Care services, commissioned on a 50:50 basis with NHS Wirral, from the Independent Sector until September 2010, be agreed, and

 

(3)  a further report on commissioning plans for October 2010 be presented to Cabinet, which should include proposals for the transitional arrangements from the current provision to that proposed in the report.
