The Board to consider the key elements of the Implementation Plan 2023/24 and give an opinion on whether the plan takes account of the Health and Wellbeing Strategy.

David Jobbins

David Jobbins, Interim Deputy Director (Planning & Programmes), Integrated Care Board gave a presentation on the Draft Bath and North East Somerset, Swindon and Wiltshire Integrated Care System Implementation Plan 2023/24 as detailed in the papers circulated in advance of the meeting.

The Board RESOLVED to agree that the wording of the opinion that the Health and Wellbeing Board will provide on whether the plan takes proper account of B&NES JLHWS as follows:

“B&NES Health and Wellbeing Board has been asked to provide an opinion on whether the BSW Implementation Plan (the local version of the Joint Forward Plan) for the BSW Strategy takes proper account of the B&NES Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy. We note that the BSW Strategy, from which this plan is derived, is focussed around the delivery of three Strategic Objectives which have been agreed across partners and were arrived at through a process of consideration of the priorities in the three local JLHWS, including the B&NES strategy, as part of a wider stakeholder engagement process. Themes from priorities in the B&NES Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy flow well through the plan. The plan also includes a

chapter pulling out key 2023/24 deliverables from the local implementation plans for each of the three place based Integrated Care Alliances. The B&NES section well reflects delivery of relevant parts of the B&NES JLHWS.

The B&NES HWB is therefore happy to confirm that the BSW Implementation Plan does take proper and appropriate account of the B&NES JLHWS. The B&NES Board welcomes the opportunity to continue to be engaged in and contribute to future refreshes of the implementation plan.”
