Such individuals will be non-voting. The Board may also invite other people to address it, deliver a report to it and/or answer questions. The Board will be co-chaired by the Mayor on behalf of SCC and the SCCG Chair on behalf of SCCG with chairing responsibility rotated between meetings. Agendas will be jointly agreed in terms of content and forward planning. Agendas will be structured to clearly distinguish between decisions to be taken in respect of the Integrated Health and Care Fund (Pooled Budget) by the Board sitting as a joint committee under the 2000 Regulations, decisions taken in respect of the CCG Aligned Budget element of the Integrated Health and Care Fund by the Board sitting as a committee of SCCG and Retained Decisions taken by the relevant SCC or SCCG Officer in the venue of the Board. Democratic services support will be provided by SCC. The main contact at SCCG will be nominated by the Head of Governance and Policy. The main contact at SCC will be nominated by the SCC Monitoring Officer. Defined duties will specifically include the circulation of agendas and papers five clear working days in advance of each scheduled meeting. In addition, officer support will assist the chair(s) in the management of all associated business. Attendance It will be important that members of the Board commit to attend meetings of the Board. The appointment of substitute members is not permitted. Quorum, Decision Making, Voting and Urgent Decisions The Board will be quorate providing one-third of the voting membership is in attendance, with at least three members present from each of SCCG and SCC. The Board will aim to achieve a consensus for all decisions. Where the Board is making a decision as a joint committee of SCCG and SCC a decision reached is a joint decision of the partners binding on both partners. Where the Board is making a decision as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG that decision is a decision of SCCG and is binding on SCCG only. In those circumstances where consensus cannot be reached and a decision must be taken, the issue may be put to a vote. If a decision of the Board acting as a joint committee is put to a vote, then all SCCG members will be entitled to vote on behalf of SCCG. SCC voting members will be entitled to vote on behalf of SCC. This is subject to the decision-making safeguards set out below. If a decision of the Board acting as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG is put to a vote, then all voting members entitled to vote (see below) shall do so as individual members of the Board. This is subject to the decision-making safeguards set out below. Should it be agreed that a matter should be taken to a vote (see below for how this is to be decided), there shall be an equal number of votes allocated to SCCG members and to SCC voting members, regardless of the number of members in attendance. The number of votes will be determined by reference to the lower number of voting members in attendance at that meeting from either of the partners. Votes will be given in the order of the voting members listed in the table above, to the number required to meet the determined number of voting members from either organisation. As an illustration, should all voting members from SCCG be present and four voting members from SCC be present, then four votes will be allocated to SCCG members and four votes allocated to SCC members. All four of the SCC members will vote and the four votes available to CCG members would be determined as follows: Chair; Chief Accountable Officer; Medical Director; and Chief Finance Officer. A vote will be carried by a simple majority. Should a vote be tied, the process will be to take the issue outside of the meeting to obtain further detail/information relevant to the decision in hand. There will be no casting vote to resolve such deadlock. The issue will then be brought back to the next meeting of the Board with a clear recommendation for approval or alternatively the matter will be escalated to the partner organisations. Where the matter under consideration is a decision of the Board acting as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG, the decision will be escalated to SCCG for decision and to SCC for consideration and comment. However, before a vote can be considered the majority of voting members from both partner organisations who would be entitled to participate in the relevant vote (having applied the balancing mechanism above to ensure equality of votes between the organisations as described above) must have agreed that it is appropriate to determine the issue in this manner. Before choosing to put the issue to a vote, the Board may instead ask for further work to be undertaken on the issue to explore, clarify, mitigate or minimise any concerns. The Board may ask for specific individuals who may or may not be part of the Board to discuss the issue further to try to find a suitable resolution on the issue. The issue would then be brought back to a future Board meeting. Where a decision cannot be made through consensus and it is not acceptable to undertake further work or discussion on the issue outside of the Board meeting or put the issue to a vote, the issue will be referred back to the partner organisations. Where the matter under consideration is a decision of the Board acting as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG, the decision will be escalated to SCCG for decision and to SCC for consideration and comment. Either Partner may, notwithstanding the provisions of these Terms of Reference, make any Urgent Decision (as defined below) that would otherwise be taken by the Board, themselves. This is provided for in the Partnership Agreement. Where either Partner makes an Urgent Decision it shall report such Urgent Decision to the Health and Care Commissioning Board at its next meeting together with an explanation of: what the decision was; why it was deemed an Urgent Decision; and any implications of such Urgent Decision on the Partnership Arrangements. Where either Partner considers that the other Partner’s justification for making an Urgent Decision is not reasonable or not substantiated and/or if the Partners cannot agree as to the implications of any Urgent Decision on the Partnership Arrangements, then either Partner may refer any such matter to the Disputes Procedure under the Partnership Agreement.

Should it be agreed that a matter should be taken to a vote (see below for how this is to be decided), there shall be an equal number the following votes are allocated: In relation to pooled fund decisions Local Authority (4 votes) Health (4 votes) System (2 votes) SCC CCG Public Health SCO/NCA CCG (in place of votes allocated VCSE) GMMH CCG (in place of Primary Care) In relation to SCCG aligned fund decisions Local Authority (4 votes) Health (4 votes) System (2 votes) SCC CCG Public Health SCO/NCA VCSE GMMH Primary Care Where voting takes place, all those eligible to vote must fully engage with and truly understand the views of ALL members and to SCC voting members, regardless of the number of members in attendance. The number of votes will be determined by reference to the lower number of Board, whether voting members in attendance at that meeting from either of the partnersor not. Votes will be given in the order of the voting members listed in the members table above, to the number required to meet the determined number of voting members from either organisation. As an illustration, should all voting members from SCCG be present and four voting members from SCC be present, then four votes will be allocated to SCCG members and four votes allocated to SCC members. All four of the SCC members will vote and the four votes available to CCG SCC members would be determined as follows: Chair• City Mayor; Chief Accountable Officer• Statutory Deputy City Mayor; Medical Director• Deputy City Mayor and Lead Member for Adult Services, Health and Wellbeing; and Chief Finance Officer• Executive Support Member for Social Care and Mental Health. A vote will be carried by a simple majority. Should a vote be tied, the process will be to take the issue outside of the meeting to obtain further detail/information relevant to the decision in hand. There will be no casting vote to resolve such deadlock. The issue will then be brought back to the next meeting of the Board with a clear recommendation for approval or alternatively the matter will be escalated to the partner organisations. Where the matter under consideration is a decision of the Board acting as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG, the decision will be escalated to SCCG for decision and to SCC for consideration and comment. However, before a vote can be considered the majority of voting members from both partner organisations who would be entitled to participate in the relevant vote (having applied the balancing mechanism above to ensure equality of votes between the organisations as described above) must have agreed that it is appropriate to determine the issue in this manner. Before choosing to put the issue to a vote, the Board may instead ask for further work to be undertaken on the issue to explore, clarify, mitigate or minimise any concerns. The Board may ask for specific individuals who may or may not be part of the Board to discuss the issue further to try to find a suitable resolution on the issue. The issue would then be brought back to a future Board meeting. Where a decision cannot be made through consensus and it is not acceptable to undertake further work or discussion on the issue outside of the Board meeting or put the issue to a vote, the issue will be referred back to the partner organisations. Where the matter under consideration is a decision of the Board acting as a committee of the Governing Body of SCCG, the decision will be escalated to SCCG for decision and to SCC for consideration and comment. Either Partner may, notwithstanding the provisions of these Terms of Reference, make any Urgent Decision (as defined below) that would otherwise be taken by the Board, themselves. This is provided for in the Partnership Agreement. Where either Partner makes an Urgent Decision it shall report such Urgent Decision to the Health and Care Commissioning Board at its next meeting together with an explanation of: • what the decision was; • why it was deemed an Urgent Decision; and • any implications of such Urgent Decision on the Partnership Arrangements. Where either Partner considers that the other Partner’s justification for making an Urgent Decision is not reasonable or not substantiated and/or if the Partners cannot agree as to the implications of any Urgent Decision on the Partnership Arrangements, then either Partner may refer any such matter to the Disputes Procedure under the Partnership Agreement.
