(a)      That the Forward Work Programme be approved;

(b)      That the Facilitator, in consultation with the Chair of the Committee be authorised to vary the Forward Work Programme between meetings, as the need arises; and

(c)       That the Committee notes the progress made in completing the outstanding actions.

The Social Care and Environment Overview & Scrutiny Facilitator presented the current Forward Work Programme and reported that there had been difficulties scheduling a date for the meeting with Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB) and consideration was now being given to the January meeting which would be confirmed shortly.  In addition to the other items on 7 December there would also be a video from Double Click to update Members.  She reported that following a request from the Education Youth & Culture Overview & Scrutiny Committee, a report on Out of County Placements had been provisionally scheduled for a meeting on 6 June.  Another option, which would be at the discretion of the Committee, would be for it to be presented at the joint meeting to be held on 27 June.

Councillor Mackie commented that as both meetings were being held in June, he thought it would be appropriate if the item went to the joint meeting on 27 June.  The Facilitator agreed to add this to the joint meeting.

The Facilitator advised that the workshop being held at the Westwood Centre was likely to be scheduled for January and reported on the action tracking as set out in the report.

The recommendations within the report were moved by Councillor David Mackie and seconded by Councillor Debbie Owen.

RESOLVED:

(a)      That the Forward Work Programme be approved;

(b)      That the Facilitator, in consultation with the Chair of the Committee be authorised to vary the Forward Work Programme between meetings, as the need arises; and

(c)       That the Committee notes the progress made in completing the outstanding actions.
