Purpose

The decision is for the council to enter into a section 75 agreement for the Better Care Fund for the period 2026/27.
The reason for the decision is that there is a requirement to have a signed section 75 agreement in place to operate the Better Care Fund. There is no alternative to not having a section 75 agreement in place and therefore no other options have been considered.
