received an overview of the Commissioning of 24 Hour Call Monitoring Service
for Assistive Technology Service as detailed in the circulated report. It was highlighted at the meeting that when
developing the contract for the 24 Hour Call Monitoring Service the Social
Services and Wellbeing Wales Act 2014 would have to be considered. Decisions: 1.
That the Head of Children and Adult Social Services be granted delegated
authority to negotiate and settle the terms of the proposed three year
agreement with Carmarthenshire County Council for a Call Monitoring Service (as
detailed in the circulated report); 2.
that the Head of Children and Adult Social Services be
granted delegated authority to enter into a three year agreement with

enable a revised agreement with Carmarthenshire County Council to provide all
of the required service elements that our service users that use Assistive Technology Service require. The Call Monitoring Service will be provided
at a reduced cost to the Council and the financial benefit will increase as the
