Report of the Director for Community and Children’s Services.

The Committee received a report of the Executive Director for Community and Children’s Services concerning a commissioning role for the City of London Corporation.

A Member noted that there were specific areas in the City where substance misuse was more of a problem and asked what the most effective way to communicate with these areas. In reply, officers said that this could be done through the Director of Public Health and their team and undertook to share further information outside of the meeting.

RESOLVED: That Members approve the City of London Corporation to continue a lead commissioner role of the Pan London Substance Misuse Programme which will include commissioning of an Inpatient Detoxification and Stabilisation (IPD) Framework (via one lead provider) to support a wider cohort of those needing help with substance misuse post 2025/26.
