Commitment to a Preferred I.T. System to Support Social Services Functions

Minutes:

Decisions:

 

1.   That the risks associated with the adoption of the Welsh Community Care Information System at this point in time are assessed as outweighing the anticipated benefits be noted;

 

2.   That the Director of Social Services, Health and Housing delays participation in the programme until the identified risks have been sufficiently mitigated;

 

3.   That the Director of Social Services, Health and Housing works alongside corporate I.T. colleagues and invest in the development of the  Social Services Information System within the Oracle Apex Environment until such time that the Welsh Community Care Information System is deemed as fit for purpose.

 

Reason for Decisions:

 

To enable the Council to develop the SSIS within Oracle Apex will ensure we have an I.T.solution designed specifically for the needs of the Social Services Directorate, in addition to being built on a platform that will provide a stable I.T. environment for the foreseeable future.

 

Implementation of Decisions:

 

The decision will be implemented after the three day call in period.
