SR 25th November. • Timescales or behaviours mean that systems change does not involve the individuals and communities it intends to serve • Integration becomes an end in itself rather than a means to an end. 3 Challenges • Social model is subjugated to the medical model, that social care becomes ancillary health care and that social work reverts to case management • The role that LAs can and do play in whole system leadership across health and social care - strengthen Health and Wellbeing Boards, with more funding routed via them • A clean settlement for social care, not dependent on transfer from NHS 4 Opportunities • Devolution could front increased local democratic oversight of health and care • It may enable some local shaping of models - flexibility of design • Can help to make changes that are necessary but difficult if overseen centrally. • It could help to enable local areas to influence national policy to provide levers for change 5 Ministerial Integration Implementation Taskforce • Includes Jeremy Hunt, Oliver Letwin, Greg Clark, Alistair Burt • Aim - Monitor and drive delivery, as well as consider the options for future health and social care integration policy • Some of the key issues discussed have been the future of the BCF, workforce and the integration scorecard • Ray James represents ADASS on the Taskforce 6 Scorecard • On 1 July, the Secretary of State for Health announced a new set of unified metrics for the integration of health and social care • All areas should be baselined and benchmarked nationally by December 2015 • Harold Bodmer sits on the Department of Health’s Integration Scorecard Task and Finish Group 7 Draft Scorecard metrics • Currently there are six metrics proposed around outputs, technology and patients’ experiences. – Technological enabler - Do all health and social care organisations have read/write access on care records – Technological enabler 2: Do you share data to drive the coordinated allocation of resources through risk stratification? – Output 1: Total bed days for unplanned admissions of ambulatory care sensitive conditions per 100,000 population – Output 2: Proportion of 65+ who were still at home 91 days after discharge from hospital into reablement and rehabilitation – Patient Experience 1: Proportion of people with both PHB and social care personal budgets who have been able to link the two. – Patient Experience. 2: New survey question focused on experience of integrated care 8 Future of BCF • The Government has announced that BCF will continue beyond April 2016 - unclear how long the financial settlement will be for • Planning guidance will not be published until after the spending review • Early clarification of aims, processes and timelines will help local partners to plan beyond 2016 • Transformation fund - to support the service transformation needed to make the integration of social care and health a reality 9 Vanguards/New Care Models • Organise services that focus on the needs of citizens and look to dismantle the traditional boundaries as to where, when and how care is delivered • 29 areas were selected to pilot new models for localised healthcare in March 2015 • 23rd July, NHS England launched eight new Vanguards relating to urgent and emergency care • 25th September, a further 13 hospital Vanguards were announced which allows some of the best-known and best-run hospitals in Britain, to extend their geographical reach • Currently a lack of detailed national evaluation 10 Priorities in shaping integration and devolution • We want to see a system that is protected, aligned, and re-designed • DVP - ensure that new social and health care delivery models prioritise the need for: – Personalised services which are more joined-up around the individual – Good information and advice to enable us to look after ourselves – Building supportive relationships – Maintain independence • Money to ensure sustainability, capacity and quality - including living wage and workforce 11 Some questions to consider • Comments on: – Devolution – BCF and proposed Scorecard – Vanguards/new care models • What experience do people have of issues that need to be addressed nationally (challenges or opportunities)? • What national activity would support directors and senior colleagues? 12.

  • From Rt Hon Greg Clark MP, Chair
    From Rt Hon Greg Clark MP, Chair Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP Prime Minister (By e-mail) 23 March 2021 Dear Prime Minister, Cuts to scientific research I am writing to you in my capacity as Chair of the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee. My Committee strongly welcomes the Government’s commitments to science as exemplified by the commitment to increase public R&D expenditure to £22bn a year by 2024–25, to invest 2.4% of GDP in R&D by 2027, and last week the clear focus of the UK being a science superpower in the Integrated Review. The last year has demonstrated the vital importance of science and the brilliance of UK scientists. It is deeply concerning that at the very moment when the whole country recognises the importance of scientific research and when a Government has been elected with a promise to double the budget for research, that the science budget should be facing immediate and substantial cuts involving the cancellation of current research. Scientists such as Sir Jeremy Farrar, Director of Wellcome, who has been a leading member of SAGE throughout the pandemic, and our institutions of global repute such as the Royal Society, have expressed their alarm at the consequences of three developments in particular. First, it has been suggested that the UK’s participation in Horizon Europe will be funded (at a cost of £2bn/year) from the BEIS science budget. While the UK was a Member State this formed part of the UK’s overall subscription to the European Union and was always accepted to be additional to the BEIS science/R&D budget.

  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 11 January 2018 On 8-9 January 2018, Prime Minister Theresa May conducted a ministerial reshuffle. This guide has been updated to reflect the changes. The Conservative government does not have a parliamentary majority of MPs but has a confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). The DUP will support the government in key votes, such as on the Queen's Speech and Budgets, as well as Brexit and security matters, which are likely to dominate most of the current Parliament. This gives the government a working majority of 13. This is a briefing for BIA members on the new Government and key ministerial appointments for our sector.

  • Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013
    Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013 Executive Summary Sixteen special advisers have gone on to become Cabinet Ministers. This means that of the 492 special advisers listed in the Constitution Unit database in the period 1979-2010, only 3% entered Cabinet. Seven Conservative party Cabinet members were formerly special advisers. o Four Conservative special advisers went on to become Cabinet Ministers in the 1979-1997 period of Conservative governments. o Three former Conservative special advisers currently sit in the Coalition Cabinet: David Cameron, George Osborne and Jonathan Hill. Eight Labour Cabinet members between 1997-2010 were former special advisers. o Five of the eight former special advisers brought into the Labour Cabinet between 1997-2010 had been special advisers to Tony Blair or Gordon Brown. o Jack Straw entered Cabinet in 1997 having been a special adviser before 1979. One Liberal Democrat Cabinet member, Vince Cable, was previously a special adviser to a Labour minister. The Coalition Cabinet of January 2013 currently has four members who were once special advisers. o Also attending Cabinet meetings is another former special adviser: Oliver Letwin as Minister of State for Policy. There are traditionally 21 or 22 Ministers who sit in Cabinet. Unsurprisingly, the number and proportion of Cabinet Ministers who were previously special advisers generally increases the longer governments go on. The number of Cabinet Ministers who were formerly special advisers was greatest at the end of the Labour administration (1997-2010) when seven of the Cabinet Ministers were former special advisers. The proportion of Cabinet made up of former special advisers was greatest in Gordon Brown’s Cabinet when almost one-third (30.5%) of the Cabinet were former special advisers.

  • Cabinet Committees
    Published on The Institute for Government (https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk) Home > Whitehall Explained > Cabinet committees Cabinet committees What are cabinet committees? Cabinet committees are groups of ministers that can “take collective decisions that are binding across government”.[1] They are partly designed to reduce the burden on the full cabinet by allowing smaller groups of ministers to take decisions on specific policy areas. These committees have been around in some form since the early 20th century. The government can also create other types of ministerial committees. In June 2015, David Cameron introduced implementation taskforces, designed “to monitor and drive delivery of the government’s most important cross-cutting priorities”[2], although these were discontinued when Boris Johnson became prime minister in July 2019. In March 2020, Boris Johnson announced the creation of four new ‘implementation committees’[3] in response to the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. These four committees focused on healthcare, the general public sector, economic and business, and international response. The four committees were chaired by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Michael Gove, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak and Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab respectively. Each committee chair fed into a daily ‘C-19 meeting’ of the prime minister, key ministers and senior officials, to discuss Covid-19. These ‘implementation committees’ were replaced by two new Covid-19 related cabinet committees in June 2020 – ‘COVID-19 Strategy’ and ‘COVID-19 Operations’. On 13 May 2020, the Cabinet Office also announced the creation of five new ‘roadmap taskforces’[4] – committees intended to help guide certain sectors of the UK economy out of the Covid-19 induced lockdown.
