Minutes:
Councillor Elen Heaton presented
the report seeking Cabinet approval of the North Wales Regional Partnership
Board 10 Year Strategic Capital Plan and Denbighshire’s capital priorities for
improved integrated health and social care.
Some background was provided to the establishment of the Regional Partnership Board (RPB) with the aim of facilitating collaboration to improve health and social care across the region. Welsh Government required all RPBs to develop and implement strategic capital plans to reflect the 10-year view of capital investment needs in the region. All six local authorities had put forward their capital priorities in relation to integrated health and social care projects to create one regional strategy. Denbighshire’s projects included the Royal Alexandra Hospital, Denbigh Health and Social Care Programme, and Gerddi Glasfryn, Denbigh. The Plan was a live document which would be reviewed and updated at least annually and allowed future projects to be added to the capital priority list over the next 10 years.
Councillor Heaton corrected an inaccuracy reported in the press over funding for the Royal Alexandra Hospital discussed at Partnerships Scrutiny Committee. The partnership element of the funding, approximately 20% of the total funding required, had not been secured. The necessary forms for the initial scoping and feasibility of the project had recently been approved which was the good news shared with the Scrutiny Committee. The next stage involved local approval of the necessary forms and if Cabinet approved the recommendations, those priorities would be submitted to the RPB for endorsement and inclusion in the Regional Capital Plan.
RESOLVED that Cabinet
approve the North Wales Regional Partnership Board 10 Year Strategic Capital
Plan and agree with Denbighshire’s capital priorities for improved integrated
health and social care to meet future needs.
