WRITTEN QUESTIONS FROM MEMBERS

The following question has been received from Mr Liley, of Healthwatch and will be taken at Item 30 (b):

Healthwatch would like to ask a member question at the HWB, as follows:

Government advice is that if we move to Tier 2 COVID response Care Home visiting will be restricted to "...only in exceptional circumstances" see: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/local-covid-alert-level-high#visiting-relatives-in-care-homes

Irrespective of any move to Tier 2 can the HWB ensure that care home residents in Brighton and Hove can be visited by one nominated family member by arranging weekly testing provided on the same basis as for care home staff?
