Purpose:

Content: Consideration was given to a report of the Assistant Director for Commissioning of Adult Social Care and Prevention which sought agreement to sign off the Better Care Fund planning template, narrative document, and the capacity and demand template.   Resolved: That, in line with the grant conditions, the Better Care Fund planning return, narrative document, and the demand and capacity document for Rochdale 2025/26 be signed-off.   Reason for decision Signing off the Better Care Fund planning return, narrative document, and the demand and capacity document was a condition of grant funding.   Alternatives considered Not to agree sign off the Better Care Fund planning return, narrative document, and demand and capacity document – this option was not recommended, as it would not meet the requirements of the grant conditions.
