Decision:
Cabinet considered a report of the Director of Children’s Services regarding the recent Ofsted ILACS inspection and the improvement support work being offered to the region.
The report was introduced and it was noted that the outcome of the inspection was that Hampshire’s Children’s Services department was now rated as outstanding across all areas. Key highlights included the endorsement of the department’s investment strategy, the high quality social work carried out by the department and the quality of early help services.
Cabinet welcomed the report, acknowledging the achievement of the department and the important role of social workers in the community. In particular the success of early help services to replace children’s centres was welcomed. Pro-active plans to sustain the outstanding performance, including through work with local universities were outlined.
With the agreement of the Leader, Councillor House addressed Cabinet, welcoming the report and agreeing that the achievements should be celebrated. He highlighted a minor concern about support for other authorities, agreeing with the principle of doing so but questioning whether there was sufficient spare capacity.
Cabinet acknowledged the importance of having capacity to take on additional support within the sector and it was noted that an update had been received by the Employment in Hampshire County Council Committee confirming that this work could be done without detriment to Hampshire.
The recommendations in the report were agreed. A decision record is attached to these minutes.

The recommendations in the report were agreed. A decision record is attached to these minutes.

Effective from: 30/07/2019
Decision:
Cabinet considered a report of the Director of Public Health, providing an update on the Public Health Strategy.
With the agreement of the Leader, Councillor Porter addressed Cabinet. With reference to the five priority areas in the report, she asked that more pressure be put on the health service to ensure sufficient support for young people through the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS).
The report was introduced and details of the five priority areas were set out to improve the health of the population. Particular successes were identified, including work with partners to reduce smoking in pregnancy, the falls champions initiative and in being awarded funding to better understand how to reduce the rate of suicide in males.
Cabinet welcomed the update and acknowledged further successes around substance misuse, breastfeeding support and increasing rates of cervical screening. It was agreed that the responsible Cabinet Members would follow up Councillor Porter’s points about CAMHS provision.
The recommendations in the report were agreed with a small amendment to reflect the national and international nature of public health work. A decision record is attached to these minutes.
