Decision Maker: Executive Director of Corporate Resources

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

Cabinet approve to delegate detailed spending decisions for the implementation of the Doncaster Place Plan £3m, other Integrated Functions £0.7m and unallocated balance £0.7m from the Non-Recurrent Better Care Fund Earnarked Reserve to the Director of People, in consultation with the Chief Finance Officer and relevant Portfolio Holder on 27 March 2018.

Given the role of the Director of People is no longer relevant, and the funding is predominantly for Adult Social Care, it is recommended to change the delegation to the Director of Adults, in consultation with the Chief Finance Officer and relevant Portfolio Holder. The Director of Adults is to consult with the Director of Children's Services if relevant to their Portfolio.

Decision:

Detailed spending decisions for the implementation of the Place Plan (from the Non-Recurrent Better Care Fund Earmarked Reserve) to the Director of Adults to approve, in consultation with the Chief Finance Officer and relevant Portfolio Holder. The Director of Adults to consult with the Director of Children's Services if relevant to their Portfolio.

Alternative options considered:

Change approval from the Director of People to Chief Executive as they have authority on any matter delegated to other Directors. This was rejected as the funding and the Place Plan fall within the remit of the Director of Adult Services.
