Issue - meetings

Mr Blandamer advised that the paper constituted a step forward but that work continued to refine the data and ensure it was presented consistently across GM. Further detail would be provided at Boards sitting under this one, and it was noted that analysis continued regarding the high attendance at A&E.

Board Members noted the positive progress made despite challenging circumstances, and it was agreed that as these reports progressed it would be easier to assess trends.

The meeting recognised in particular good progress on GP appointment numbers, on the performance of the urgent care system, and on IAPT waiting times.
