Asking the questions...

I discover that as a Group Leader of a Minority I have the right to attend the Cabinet of Derbyshire County Council and ask questions.
The next meeting is this Thursday but I’m unable to be there and so have tabled some written questions and I will get written answers in due course:

1. Minutes 79/21 (page 6)
Does this mean that HIV PrEP is now available on prescription in all of Derbyshire’s sexual health clinics to all of those who need it, request it or are prescribed it? Can the review of this trial be brought forwards so there is a seamless provision beyond March 2022 if it is to be continued past that date?

2. Minutes 20/21 (page 14)

To ask if the Arts, Health and Wellbeing work planned could especially focus on hard to reach communities including the isolated, lonely and LGBT+ residents and those most vulnerable to suicude risk and mental health difficulties as this has been a particular consequence of the Pandemic and lockdown restrictions? 

3. Universal Funding for Drug Treatment (p.137)
Given it has not been possible to undertake a full consultation, will the Council undertake to proactively communicate the effect and consequences of this funding with those members who are interested in such interventions and whose communities are directly impacted/affected?

4. Future Development of Bus Services in Derbyshire (p.193)
Noting that the Council must publish a Bus Service Improvement Plan by 31st October. Will the Council undertake immediate consultation with all of Derbyshire’s Parish and Town Councils and with all Districts and Boroughs on the proposals highlighting both the opportunities and risks of this initiative?
