WELCOME AND INTRODUCTION

Additional documents:

Minutes:

The Chair welcomed Members, Officers and any members of the public viewing to the meeting.

 

She reported that the Chief Executive of NHS Wirral Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) was due to attend the meeting to present Item 6 and Item 7 but had passed apologies due to self-isolation. It was the view of the Chair that it would not be a productive use of the Committee’s time to consider the items in the absence of the Chief Executive of the CCG.

 

On a motion proposed by Councillor Jenny Johnson, seconded by Councillor Dave Mitchell, it was unanimously resolved – that Item 6 ‘Thorn Heys Respite Provision Update’ and Item 7 ‘Integrated Care System’’ be deferred to a future meeting to be arranged between the Chair and Group Spokespersons.
