- setting broad funding levels and objectives for partnership working
- making representations at strategic level for funding coming into the area
- agreeing project plans
- monitoring overall performance
- overseeing the operation and accountability of partnership arrangements
- ensuring that the individual partners on the Board meet the requirements of effective integrated service delivery and in particular information sharing, pooling resources, use of a common assessment framework (CAF),the Team Around The Child (TAC)
