Decision details

The Director of Adults and Health approved a permanent arrangement for the continuation of the Reassessment Team on the delivery of Value for Money (VfM) work and discreet commissioning programmes of work which will result in both cashable and non-cashable savings on an ongoing basis.

Note that the work continues to be overseen by the Head of Service for Specialist Services and the relevant Service Delivery Managers within those areas.

Note that the mitigation of risk if the Reassessment Team were not to have sufficient work on an ongoing basis (this is highly unlikely) is that where vacancies occur across the assessment services these permanent members of staff would be migrated into those vacancies and the Reassessment Team posts would then be deleted, this would allow any financial risks to be efficiently and appropriately remedied.
