A report of the Corporate Governance Group was submitted (copies of which had been circulated) outlining the key governance issues currently facing the Council along with agreed controls put in place to manage the issue.  A quarterly report was also provided via communication and challenge to nominated officers specified by the Corporate Governance Group.

The following comments were made/issues raised:

·         Members were provided with an update on the newly formed provider meeting, the changes in personnel at the CCG and the plan that had been formed for the Care Quality Commission.

·         The Chair of the Audit Committee requested that the risk assessment for the medium term financial plan be discussed at the next workshop as it was felt that this is an area that Members needed to be aware of.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
