The Committee considered its work programme for 2017/18, the schedule of Council Members’ visits and matters arising from previous meetings.
With regard to Minute 54B: Shared Lives Service, the Vice-Chairman confirmed that work was underway to explore how the Shared Lives Service might be further developed. A number of other local authorities had developed a similar service and the Vice-Chairman would be working closely with the Portfolio Holder for Care Services to identify examples of best practice and how this might be applied in Bromley.
The Committee discussed the importance of encouraging Member participation in the Schedule of Council Members’ Visits. The Vice-Chairman suggested a minimum number of participating Members should be required for Council visits to go ahead, and it was agreed that the Committee Members would consider how Members could be encouraged to engage with the Schedule of Council Members’ Visits.
RESOLVED that the Care Services work programme for 2017/18, the schedule of Council Members’ visits and matters arising from previous meetings be noted.
