Section 33: Care Home Accommodation Functions PDF 140 KB To consider a report by County Councillor Stephen Hayes, Portfolio Holder for Adult Services. Additional documents:
Minutes: Cabinet considered proposals to introduce a Section 33 Agreement to pool budgets with Powys Teaching Health Board for the future commissioning of residential care for adults to ensure that the Council was compliant with new statutory requirements. There would be a phased approach to the implementation and in 2018/19 only the current arrangement of Funded Nursing Care would be pooled. The County Council would be the lead agency. The Board of PTHB had approved the proposal at its meeting on 21st March.
Cabinet noted that the Scrutiny Working Group had welcomed the move to a pooled budget but had raised issues over governance. The Leader also reported correspondence from the Scrutiny Chair on historic monies owed by PTHB and Cabinet agreed that this issue should be dealt with at the Joint Partnership Board and that the JPB needed to meet more regularly.
