Issue - meetings

The Trust received a report that provided an update on progress in relation to the development of the new Children and Young People’s Plan (C&YP).

It was noted that the new C&YP was in its final stages of development and that work was underway to evaluate the existing C&YP, which was due to conclude in September 2009.

A Working Group had been established from representatives from across the partnership to assist in the development of Needs Assessment and the Board was asked to comment on the draft executive summary of the Needs Assessment appended to the report.

The Trust broke into three groups to consider the following issues:

• The Vision Statement for the C&YP
• The Needs Assessment
• Workforce Development

It was noted that a summary of each groups discussion would be compiled and fed into the consultation process. Any further feedback on the Needs Assessment should be sent to Zakir Chaudhry whose contact details had been circulated.

RESOLVED:

1. That the report be noted.

2. That the points raised during discussion should be noted and fed into the consultation process.
