BUSINESS ITEM - ANNUAL SAFEGUARDING REPORTS, CHILDREN'S ADULTS Minutes: Sir Paul Ennals, the Chair of the Haringey Safeguarding Children’s Board, presented a report to the Board that was included in the agenda pack at pages 107 -155. The report was for information purposes and provided an overview of Haringey LSCB’s activities and achievements during 2014-2015; it summarised the effectiveness of safeguarding activity in Haringey and provided an overview of how well children in Haringey were protected.
The Chair of the Haringey Safeguarding Children’s Board drew the Committee’s attention to the Chair’s Foreword, especially the last paragraph; Section 6 on Board effectiveness, and the summary in Section 8. The Board noted that safeguarding arrangements within Haringey were broadly robust and effective and that the partnership had demonstrated its willingness to confront and respond to issues that arose. In terms of areas for improvement, the partnership needed to; improve its data sharing, improve its engagement of children and young people in the work it undertook and to think radically about how services would be delivered in the years ahead.
The Chair of the Haringey Safeguarding Children’s Board highlighted considerations for the Board to note in relation to the report:
Sharon Grant, the Chair of Healthwatch Haringey, asked for clarification on the reasons behind worsening performance around home visits to children subject to child protection plans within four weeks. The Chair of the Haringey Safeguarding Children’s Board responded that the figures noted in the report reflected performance for the last 12 months to April and that more recent performance was more encouraging. The AD Safeguarding and Social Care added that one of the main reasons was difficulty in recruiting permanent staff, which led to a relatively high level of turnover of agency staff. The AD Safeguarding and Social Care advised that the performance reflected a shortfall in home visits being done within the four week timescale not that those visits were not happening at ... view the full minutes text for item 35. |

Discussion Item: Priority 2 Increasing Healthy Life Expectancy PDF 331 KB Additional documents:
Minutes: A summary version of the presentation circulated as part of the agenda pack (pages 25-59) was tabled at the meeting. Dr Jeanelle de Gruchy, Director of Public Health gave the first part of the presentation on the Annual Public Health report. Hard copies of the Annual Public Health report were distributed to the Board. The second part of the presentation was delivered by Marion Morris, Head of Health Improvement, and focused on the delivery of Priority 2 of the Health and Wellbeing Strategy – Increasing Healthy Life Expectancy. Following the presentation the Board discussed its findings.
The Director of Public Health introduced: Joan Curtis, Secretary Haringey Friends of Parks Forum; Wendy Thorogood - Smarter Travel Officer; Andrea Keeble - Commissioning Manager for Sports and Physical Activity; Dr Katrin Edelman, Clinical Service Director, Barnet Enfield Haringey Mental Health Trust.
The 2015 Annual Public Health report focused on encouraging Haringey residents to live longer, healthier lives. The Board noted that in spite of an overall improvement in life expectancy over recent years, not all had benefitted, and inequalities in life expectancy remained. There was a 7 year gap in average life expectancy between the most affluent and most deprived areas of the borough, and women were expected to live 4 years longer than men.
The Board also noted that, in terms of healthy life expectancy for Haringey, women were on average living the last 25 years of their lives in poor health, and men the last 16 years of their lives in poor health. The main reason people were living in poor health was because they had one or more long term health conditions. Long term health conditions were usually preventable and were often caused by a small number of lifestyle factors. These factors included; an unhealthy diet, low levels of physical activity, smoking and excessive alcohol intake. These factors were also the most important risk factors for people dying early. The impact of these factors on the provision of health and social care was significant.
In response to ensuring that residents lived long, healthy lives, the Board noted that the focus was on three key areas: Making it easier for people to make the healthy choice; working with communities and giving support to those who need it most.
The Director of Public Health drew the Board’s attention to the recommendations at the back page of the Annual Public Health Report. Some of the key recommendations were noted as:
The Chair queried why West Green ward had significantly higher levels of life expectancy than some of its neighbouring wards in Tottenham. In response, officers advised that the numbers were estimates and that the ... view the full minutes text for item 36. |

New items of urgent business To consider any new items of urgent business admitted at Item 4 above. Minutes: The Director of Public Health introduced an item of Urgent Business to the committee, which provided an update on the London Health and Care Collaboration Agreement.
The London Health and Care Collaboration Agreement was agreed by all London councils and CCGs and established a London-wide framework for the acceleration of collaboration, integration and devolution, at the local, sub-regional and city-wide levels. The launch of the agreement in early December would be accompanied by the launch of a number of pilots to test different aspects of integration and devolution – Haringey CCG and Council have signalled intent to be part of two pilots.
Haringey Council and the CCG had jointly submitted an expression of interest to become a ‘prevention pilot’. The aim of this pilot was to build relationships and work intensively with London partners and national agencies (PHE, NHSE, DCLG and DWP) to explore the most effective ways of using planning and licensing powers to create healthy environments, and pilot new ways of supporting more people with health conditions (particularly mental health) into sustainable employment. Discussions were scheduled to continue over December around agreeing objectives and how the work would be supported by, the national agencies.
In addition, The NCL Collaboration Board and its five Local Authority partners submitted an expression of interest in the application of devolved powers to facilitate the improved utilisation of the health and social care estate. A successful commissioners workshop recently identified potential devolution of powers and these were being evaluated and developed prior to submission of a Business Case in early December. The project was maintaining close working with the London Office of CCGs, the office of London Local Authorities and London Transformation Programmes.
The Board noted the update on the London Health and Care Collaboration Agreement and agreed that a further update would be brought back to the Board in due course.
The Director of Public Health advised that signatures for the pilot were required by the end of the week and that the Business Case would be built around April.
