Issue - meetings

To receive a report from the Corporate Director of Governance seeking agreement for changes to the Terms of Reference of the North West London Joint Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee (“NWL JHOSC”).

Council RESOLVED to:

(1)      Agree the updated Terms of Reference for the North West London Joint Health Overview & Scrutiny Committee (NWL JHOSC) a detailed within Appendix A of the report.

(2)      replace the current Terms of Reference for the NWL JHOSC included within Part 4 of Brent’s Constitution with the updated version approved under (1) above.

The Mayor then invited Councillor Muhammed Butt, as Leader of the Council, to introduce a report from the Corporate Director of Governance outlining a number of changes to the Terms of Reference (ToR) of the North West London Joint Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee (“NWL JHOSC”).

In introducing the report, it was noted that the amendments had been developed and agreed by the NWL JHOSC and were primarily designed to reflect changes in the North West London Health sector landscape with the introduction of the Integrated Care Systems (ICS) as well as clarify the current status where participation in the JHOSC would not preclude any scrutiny or right of response by individual boroughs.

As no other members indicated they wished to speak on the report and Councillor Muhammed Butt had confirmed he did not need to exercise any right of reply the Mayor then put the recommendations in the report to the vote and they were unanimously declared CARRIED.

Council therefore RESOLVED to:

(1)      Agree the updated Terms of Reference for the North West London Joint Health Overview & Scrutiny Committee (NWL JHOSC) a detailed within Appendix A of the report.

(2)      replace the current Terms of Reference for the NWL JHOSC included within Part 4 of Brent’s Constitution with the updated version approved under (1) above.
