Decision details

Care, Support and Wellbeing of Adults in Lancashire August 2018

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Purpose:

The county council endeavours to provide the best value for money and sustainable care and support for the people of Lancashire.  The authority spends almost half of its budget on adult services and has maintained spending year on year. Many of our services work very well and are highly regarded by the people who use them.

 

However, the council recognises the need to keep pace with changing needs and expectations, and address the increasing demands being placed on our services at a time of increasing financial pressure across the public sector.

 

Therefore, to enable people to live as independently and healthily as possible, with the right level of support for themselves and their carers, the county council has produced a statement of intent to govern the design and delivery of future services.

 

This is deemed to be a Key Decision and the provisions of Standing Order C19 have been complied with.

Decision:

Cabinet approved the recommendation as set out in the report.

Reason Key: Significant effect in 2 or more electoral divisions;
