Decision details

That the draft Care Services Portfolio Plan 2016/17 be agreed.

The draft Care Services Portfolio Plan 2016/17 comprises six key priority outcomes that are in line with the Local Authority’s “Building a Better Bromley” vision of creating an environment where people can lead healthier, more independent and self-reliant lifestyles, and ensuring the best possible future for the children and young people of Bromley, with a clear focus on supporting the most vulnerable.  The six key priority outcomes are aligned to the national areas covering housing and adults and children’s social care, and reflect the Government’s outcome frameworks for these services and for the integration of local health and social care together with the requirements of adult social care services as defined by the Care Act 2014.  The Portfolio Plan also takes account of the Children’s Service Improvement Action Plan, developed in partnership with a range of key agencies in response to the Ofsted Inspection of children’s services and the Bromley Safeguarding Children Board in Spring 2016.
