Q1. NHS Wirral Clinical Commissioning Group and partners have decided to close the services at Eastham Walk in Centre and announced it 5 days before the ceasing of services. As far as I can tell they have not adhered to their Statutory Duty under the Health and Social Care Act 2012 to fully engage with the public, patients, carers and service users. Can you supply list of stakeholders and patients, service user’s reps, who have been involved, copies of governance papers and correspondence, related to this matter?

 

Q2. NHS Wirral Clinical Commissioning Group and partners, have stated that the recent closure is only a “temporary measure” and therefore I would appreciate confirmation of when Eastham Walk in Centre will fully re-opening?

 

Q3. Can you set out your long-term plans for developing services at Wirral NHS Eastham Walk in Centre and at other Wirral South locations?

Q6. Wirral Society of Arts an open invitation had been sent to all Councillors for 6 October very few responses, if unable to make that date group ward visits could be arranged.

 

Ms L Clyne

Q7. Cross party working this doesn’t appear to be happening now over the New Ferry Disaster as the Conservatives are going back on the agreement to pursue funding from the Government.

The Council have used money from the reserves but more is still needed from Central Government.

It was brought up that the victims in the Grenfell Towers Fire all were given £5,000 but nothing given as New Ferry not seemed by Central Government a big enough disaster.
