- Proportionate universalism: actions that are universal, but with a scale and intensity that is proportionate to the level of disadvantage. Economic growth is not the most important measure of a country’s success. The fair distribution of health, well-being and sustainability are important social goals. We were always told that our recommendations would be expensive, a comprehensive cost-benefit model of reductions in health inequalities does not exist. We calculated ‘the cost of doing nothing’: 1.3 to 2.5 million extra years of life; productivity losses of £31-33B; reduced tax revenue and higher welfare payments of £20-32B; increased treatment costs well in excess of £5B. Delivering the Review’s policy objectives will require action by central and local government, the NHS, the third and private sectors and community groups. Effective local delivery can only happen by empowering individuals and local communities.
- - Components of the framework: life course, social determinants, health outcomes, including wellbeing. We have developed an indicators framework, including process, output and outcome indicators. Up to local practitioners to select targets after strategic needs assessment and prioritisation. Monitoring must be aimed at measuring the impact on the social gradient. - Locally appropriate plans through SCS, JSNA, LSPs, LAAs, CAAs Role of local government: - Opportunity to tackle cross-cutting issues through the Local Performance Framework - Well placed to lead on partnerships - Commissioner of Services - Democratic/community engagement - Community safety and place shaping (planning) - Could act as model employer - Provider of adult social care and children’s services, as well as leisure services.
