Title of item
Mental Health and Wellbeing Strategy Delivery Plan and Workforce Action Plan - Prioritisation of Commitments
Purpose
To seek approval for a proposed approach to refreshing the Delivery Plan and Workforce Action Plan.
What decisions are required?
The Leadership Board is invited to:
- support publication of the next iteration of the Mental Health Strategy Delivery Plan and Workforce Action Plan being delayed in order to ensure that actions can be costed. Potential unintended consequences and appropriate mitigations of any consequences of this delay will be considered as part of the prioritisation and planning process.
- consider whether future refreshes of Delivery Plan and Workforce Action Plan should be closer aligned
- agree that an exercise to prioritise our existing remaining commitments is necessary, including identifying potential new policy options that we are not currently committed to, but that could be included in a refreshed Delivery Plan. The outputs of that exercise will be integral to informing future refreshes of the Plans.
- agree the draft underlying principles for the prioritisation exercise.
- agree the sequencing for the prioritisation exercise.
- as outlined above, consider policy suggestions for potential inclusion in future Plans, and return feedback to the Secretariat. These could be policy suggestions not currently contained within the Plans; a restatement of existing commitments that have not been able to be progressed due to the current budgetary situation; or examples of good practice that are already being taken forward, but where we could go further.
- consider the example priority ‘scoring tool’ and provide feedback to the Secretariat.
