Minutes:
The minutes of the meeting held on 3 April 2018 and of the special meetings held on 2 May 2018, 9 May 2018 and 1 June 2018 were agreed and signed by the Chairman as a correct record.
The Principal Overview and Scrutiny Officer advised that in relation to the minutes of the special meeting held on 1 June 2018 regarding the NHS England Review of Specialised Vascular Services a recommendation had been raised with the North East Regional Joint Health Scrutiny Committee meeting on 22 July 2018. The joint committee could not commit to a joint response and therefore each local authority would need to respond to the proposed changes on an individual basis.
A special meeting of the Committee would take place on 7 September 2018 where representatives of NHS England would come back and report back on the information requested, after which the Committee could take a view on how they wanted to proceed.
