Partnership Agreement for the Commissioning of Health, Wellbeing and Social Care Services

A new Section 75 Health & Wellbeing Partnership Agreement between LBHF and NHS Hammersmith & Fulham Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) was approved under delegated authority and commenced on 1 April 2013. Section 75 Agreements (entered into under the joint commissioning provisions within the NHS Action 2006) provide for joint commissioning across the whole spectrum of Local Authority and CCG responsibilities, including services for both adults and children, within the compass of the Hammersmith & Fulham Health and Wellbeing Board.

The Local Authority previously held a Section 75 Agreement with Hammersmith & Fulham Primary Care Trust and this expires on 31 April 2013. From 1 April 2013, Primary Care Trusts will be abolished and NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups will be established as statutory NHS bodies.
