1. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform:
receiving a combined information, where the combined information comprises first information regarding inter-cell beam management and second information regarding lower layer mobility;
using the second information to initiate a handover of the apparatus from a first cell to a second cell; and
using the first information to provide communication of the apparatus with another cell at least partially during the handover to the second cell, where the another cell comprises the first cell or a third cell.
