The purpose of the report was to provide information to enable NHS Durham Dales, Easington and Sedgefield (DDES) Clinical Commissioning Group’s (CCG) Primary Care Commissioning Committee to consider an application from Skerne Medical Group to close their branch surgery located in Fishburn Village. In the absence of Jennifer Long, JC advised that in December 2018 Skerne Medical Group submitted an application to permanently close two of their branch surgeries located in Trimdon Village and Fishburn Village. The application had been considered by the DDES CCG Primary Care Commissioning Committee. The closure of the Trimdon Village surgery had been approved, however the proposal to close Fishburn surgery had been rejected on the basis that the letter sent to patients as part of the engagement process had not specified that the Fishburn Village surgery was being considered for closure. The Committee therefore requested that the practice undertake a review so that it would fully understand its long term future premises needs. In October 2019 the practice submitted a further application to close its Fishburn Village surgery. The practice had stated the main reason for the application was due to GP recruitment and retention issues and to ensure the sustainability of the practice. The practice had undertaken patient and stakeholder engagement which 5 Official had focused on five options with regard to their premises: 1. extend Harbinson House, Sedgefield and retain and extend Trimdon Colliery surgery, 2. extend Harbinson House, Sedgefield and build a larger new

The Strategy identifies the key economic, social and environmental issues facing the Borough and sets out a vision for the Borough in 2014 as a 'Healthy, Prosperous and Attractive Borough with Strong Communities' . The strategy is structured around these four aims and details a number of supporting priorities and targets to be addressed under which specific service improvements will be developed. Four years after the first publication of the Community Strategy, the Council’s Overview and Scrutiny Committees decided to undertake a review to look at the quality of life issues within the Community Strategy. This is particularly useful in the final year of the Authority as this will enable these issues to be benchmarked for future reference.

  • Local Government Review in the Derwentside District Council Area, County Durham
    Local Government Review in the Derwentside District Council Area, County Durham Research Study Conducted for The Boundary Committee for England April 2004 Contents Introduction 3 Summary of Key Findings 5 Methodology 7 Definitions of Social Grade and Area 11 Topline Findings (Marked-up Questionnaire) 13 Introduction This summary report presents the key findings of research conducted by the MORI Social Research Institute on behalf of The Boundary Committee for England in the Derwentside District Council area, County Durham. The aim of the research was to establish residents’ views about alternative patterns of unitary local government. Background to the Research In May 2003, the Government announced that a referendum would take place in autumn 2004 in the North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber regions on whether there should be elected regional assemblies. The Government indicated that, where a regional assembly is set up, the current two-tier structure of local government - district, borough or city councils (called in this report ‘districts’) and county councils - should be replaced by a single tier of ‘unitary’ local authorities. In June 2003, the Government directed The Boundary Committee for England (‘the Committee’) to undertake an independent review of local government in two-tier areas in the three regions, with a view to recommending possible unitary structures to be put before affected local people in a referendum at a later date. MORI was commissioned by COI Communications, on behalf of the Committee, to help it gauge local opinion. The research was in two stages. First, in summer 2003, MORI researched local residents’ views about local government and how they identify with their local community.

The answer was less easy to find than the question was to pose.
