MATTERS ARISING In respect of the Performance Framework Progress Template the following were noted:- Pg 13 D&P 1.2 Reduce sickness absence rate by 4.0% Anne Hawkins highlighted that, as discussed at the Operational Managers' Meeting on 7th January 2008, the timescale for achievement of the national sickness absence rate target of 4% had been extended until March Within NHS GG&C, the intention was to achieve a percentage rate of below 5% by March Kath Stewart would present a progress report on achievement of the target to the next Operational Managers' Meeting. It was noted that for 2008/9 budgets were being top sliced to account for the assumed realisation of absence savings. This would equate to 200k for directly managed Mental Health services, 45k for Learning Disabilities and 4k for Addictions.

REVIEW OF PERFORMANCE CRISIS SERVICES Calum MacLeod gave an update on the development of Crisis Services. Development of Crisis Services continued to be overseen by the Service Redesign Group with most posts now filled. The local crisis services were identifying instances where patients were being admitted without following the agreed protocol for Crisis Services. It was agreed that the PAG should have more information on those admitted without reference to the Crisis Service. C MacLeod/ There have been a reduction in beds at the Southern General Hospital and Leverndale Hospital; an excess of 6 beds had been retained at Gartnavel Royal Hospital in the interim. A proposal for the appointment of a Bed Manager in the Clyde had been graded at a lower than expected level making it difficult to recruit into the post. Anne Hawkins suggested that the post be reviewed and that in the interim a secondment on existing terms and conditions be sought. F McNeill AGREED 1. That a further report be presented in three months to the PAG highlighting issues arising from implementation of the Crisis Services as part of implementation evaluation. C MacLeod 2. That in the interim, routine reports be presented to the Bed Management and Information Reference Groups to monitor progress on implementation. 4.

5 Mental Health should all be receiving the PAG papers and should arrange local dissemination within their CH(C)P. Initially this would be arranged via Clive and Frances to add a suitable explanatory note to them and make available by mid February. Once the papers were produced on a regular basis the information would be circulated at the same time as it went to the PAG. John asked if the information could be presented in pdf format to aid circulation. Colin suggested that it would be useful to have gender and ethnicity data presented along with other statistical data. This would be looked at in due course. Frances advised she was working on a web site for managers to view these reports online. Managers will have a log in and password to access this site. It was agreed Clive would contact Iona Colvin to access data on Care First, this data would enable a full suite of reports to be produced.

Anne Hawkins thought that there was an intention to remove HEAT Target 2 and replace this with the revised target as summarised on page 19 of Paper 2007/13. It was agreed that this intention should be queried with the Healthcare Policy and Strategy Directorate. It was also noted CAMHS had not provided information for incorporation into the Performance Indicators and that this should form part of the reporting template.
