Issue - decisions

The decision is for BCC to accept the funding that has been made available by NHS England for HIV community services to support those diagnosed with HIV at Bristol Royal Infirmary, Southmead Hospital and Weston General Hospital while participating in a national pilot to provide opt-out HIV testing to people attending ED. The funding for the pilot as a whole is being given to BNSSG ICB via a signed memorandum of understanding (MOU) between NHS England and BNSSG ICB. The community support funding will be given to BCC via a signed Section 256 MOU with the ICB. BCC will then award grant funding to Brigstowe for the HIV community support services.
