Report No.103/2021 was introduced by Cllr Walters, Portfolio Holder for Adults Services and Health. The purpose of the report was to update Cabinet on the progress with the project to deliver integrated health and care services by implementing a Shared Care Record (SCR) for Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland (LLR), and to approve a Collaborative Charter which confirmed the participation of Rutland County Council as one of the partners of the project.

During discussion the following points were noted:

·       Although there was approval for the project in principle, members felt that there should be clarity about the level of resource that the Council would be expected to contribute and also that any risks needed to be much more explicit.

·       The Government had instructed all local integrated care systems (ICS) to have a basic shared record solution in place by September 2021.
