23/00115 - Pathway 1 - Discharge to Assess Service Contract

Decision maker:  Leader of the Council

Decision due:   18 Jan 2024; This decision will be taken under the urgency procedure

Lead officer:  Steve Richards

Decision status:  Implemented

Notice of proposed decision first published: 18/12/2023

Reason for urgency:
If the contract terminates on 31 December 2023, this would impact on people who require support at home in the early days post discharge from hospital. The activity from the Hilton service would transfer to higher cost services e.g. care home support and the gap in service provision would impact on delayed hospital discharges

The proposal to Direct Award the Discharge to Assess Service to the current incumbent was not planned but has become necessary as it has taken longer to develop the new model than anticipated, ensuring a collaborative and joined up approach with NHS Kent and Medway, and more time for mobilisation is required, ensuring safe transfer of individuals from the current to the new service.

There is also insufficient capacity to provide enablement support for everyone in hospital who can be safely discharged home with a short-term package of care. For this reason, the Discharge to Assess service is still required to ensure sufficient capacity over the winter period

Urgent - Not Before 18 December 2023

23/00111 - Lower Thames Crossing - Agreements

Decision maker:  Cabinet Member for Highways and Transport

Decision due:   18 Dec 2023; This decision will be taken under the urgency procedure

Lead officer:  Abigail Roscoe

Decision status:  Implemented

Notice of proposed decision first published: 13/12/2023

This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:

This decision must be made within the timescales of the Development Consent Order process which will conclude on 20th December 2023. This is to enable Kent County Council (KCC) to receive funding provided by National Highways for mitigations and interventions requested by KCC throughout the examination process. An initial draft Side Agreement was only provided to KCC on 14 November and updated on 28th November 2023.

This timetable did not allow sufficient time to report to Members of the Environmnet and Transport Cabinet Committee at their meeting on 15 November and it could not be deferred to the next meeting on 11 January 2024 due to the requirement by the Examining Authority for all signed legal agreement to be submitted by the 20th December.
