Members heard from the Lead Planning Manger (MHLD Review) who presented an overview of the report which the Board had requested at its meeting in April 2020.

Members heard that the Hosted Services had successfully transitioned on 1 April 2020 from NHSG to the IJB with no detriment to existing terms and conditions of staff.
