Focusing on strengthening the development of place-based partnerships and PCNs, with ICS/ICB's building up from these more local partnerships rather than becoming overly distracted by national asks
Ensuring the changes support genuine multiagency partnerships that span the NHS, local government, voluntary, community and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations and other partners, and that ICS/ICB's new responsibilities for NHS resources and performance don’t lead them to focus narrowly on the NHS in isolation
