It was proposed by Councillor Parrott and seconded by Councillor Excell:
that, subject to any additional recommendations from the Mayor and Group Leaders and to the inclusion of the commentary from the Overview and Scrutiny Board, the Local Account set out in Appendix 1 to the submitted report, which sets out performance for 2014-2015 and sets out intentions for the Annual Strategic Agreement for services for 2016-17 be approved and that the multi agency safeguarding annual report set out in Appendix 2 to the submitted report be approved.

Meeting: 08/07/2015 - Overview and Scrutiny Board (Item 12)
12 Adult Social Care - Local Account PDF 615 KB
To consider the draft Local Account for adult social care and to consider making any comments for inclusion within the final document.
Minutes:
The Board considered the Adult Social Care – Local Account which was presented by the Executive Lead for Adults. The report provided an overview of how adult social care services had been delivered and how they had performed throughout 2014/15.
The Board asked questions regarding who the intended audience was for the report as it was considered that the language in parts was fairly technical. The Board acknowledged the financial challenges faced in delivering services and were reassured the performance was being monitored effectively. The Board felt that the performance measures identified within the report did not necessarily reflect a true picture of what was being delivered to safeguard vulnerable adults.
Resolved: that the Corporate Support Manger be authorised to provide a commentary to be included in the Local Account based on the issues raised during the course of the debate.
