Issue - meetings

The Panel considered the report of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care System providing the Panel with an update on the structure of the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care Partnership, the Integrated Care Board and the ‘Place’ of Southampton.

James House – Managing Director, Southampton, Dr Sarah Young – Clinical Director, Southampton, Ros Hartley, Director of Partnerships, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Integrated Care System, Paula Johnston - Head of Quality, Governance and Professional Development, Adult Social Care and Tom Sheppard – Head of Communications, ICS were in attendance and, with the consent of the Chair, addressed the meeting.

The Panel discussed a number of points including:

·  The progression of statute through Parliament and how this impacted on the timescales in regard to the new structure. 

·  That the white papers had set out the intention that the provision of health and care would be place driven.

·  How the metrics used to judge the success of the new structures would be taken from the existing Southampton Health and Care Strategy (2020 – 2025). It was noted that provision of financial resource would not change and that the aim was to support place based systems and approaches as the new structures developed. 

·  Structure and governance – The composition of the ICS board would be determined shortly.  The Panel questioned how the role of the accountable person for a ‘Place’ would work.  The Panel were informed that this had only recently been included in the forthcoming legislation and that no decision had been taken on how this position would be decided locally.

·  How social care provision would fit into the structure of the ICS.

RESOLVED that the Panel are kept updated on appointments to the ICS Board and key ICS timescales/milestones.
