6.1.        The Board considered a report on the arrangements for the strategic oversight of commissioning to be undertaken by the Health and Wellbeing Board and for the East Sussex Better Together Strategic Commissioning Board to be formally disestablished.

6.2.        The Board asked how existing joint commissioning of services between the Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) and East Sussex County Council (ESCC) would work within the new commissioning arrangements.

6.3.        The Director of ASCH explained that the East Sussex CCG and ESCC will be responsible for commissioning for population health in East Sussex based on need and via an East Sussex health and social care transformation programme. More specific joint commissioning arrangements will be developed within this wider strategic partnership.

6.4.        The Board RESOLVED to:

1. Note that the Health and Wellbeing Board provides strategic oversight of our health and social care system, including commissioning for whole population health and wellbeing; and

2. Endorse the disestablishment of the East Sussex Better Together Strategic Commissioning Board by East Sussex County Council, Eastbourne Hailsham and Seaford Clinical Commissioning Group and Hastings and Rother Clinical Commissioning Group
