Report of the Health and Wellbeing Policy Development Manager

The Board received the report informing Members that in May 2013, the Health and Wellbeing Board approved the City of London’s first Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy (JHWS), which covered the three year period from 201213 to 2015/16.

Members noted Officers’ proposal the next Health and Wellbeing Board Development Day be used as an opportunity for Health and Wellbeing Board members to revisit the strategy and its priorities. A full public consultation was not required for a strategy refresh, although local stakeholders should be asked for their views. Members agreed that this would be a useful activity for the Development Day on 18^th June 2014 in Walbrook Wharf.

Members agree that the Board had an array of high level priorities and this strategy would reflect and promote the duties and responsibilities of the Board such as its dedication to tackling air quality.

RESOLVED: That Members endorsed this approach to refreshing the JHWS.
