CONSULTATION PAPER

These Regulations set out the detail that must be agreed and included within an Integration Scheme by the Health Board and the Local Authority. The Regulation requires that the Health Board, the Local Authority and the Integration Joint Board (or the Integration Joint Monitoring Committee in a lead agency arrangement) act in accordance with the agreements that are made within the Integration Scheme.

The schedule sets out the matters that must be included in the Integration Scheme, along with the key pieces of information that relate to each matter that must be included. The Public Bodies (Joint Working) (Scotland) Act 2014 precludes other information being included within the Integration Scheme, except for the matters that are described in the Act or prescribed in these Regulations. All information included within the Integration Scheme is subject to Ministerial approval.
