Decision details

Cabinet

(a)             Instructed the Health and Wellbeing Portfolio Holder to inform the Health and Wellbeing Board that South Cambridgeshire District Council endorsed the Partnership Principles and Behaviours set out in Appendix 1 to the report from the Director for Health and Environmental Services, subject to Principle number 3 being amended so as to state as follows:

“We will continue to meet our own statutory obligations. However, in doing so we will seek to share and join-up our resources for the benefit of local residents to prevent ill health rather than deal with crises, just as those residents expect us to do.”

(b)             Agreed that South Cambridgeshire District Council should sign up to the Living Well Concordat and its principles, subject to any amendments (additional to the one set out in (a) above) agreed at Cambridgeshire County Council’s Health & Wellbeing Board; and

(c)             Delegated to the Portfolio Holder for Health & Wellbeing authority to agree on behalf of Cabinet any such minor amendments agreed at Health & Wellbeing Board.
