Minutes:

Members considered a report which set out details of a new transformation programme: Re-wiring Public Services being built to manage the major challenges and changes and support the Council in achieving its budget savings.

 

The programme moved away from service delivery based on consultation to a focus on outcomes with communities empowered to make decisions and commission services. It was noted that partnerships with residents and the voluntary and community sector would require significant investment and change.

 

The following four major public service areas had been included in the programme, reported in detail at paragraphs 36 to 121:

·        Community and Resident Engagement

·        Place based public services and public realm

·        Children’s and Adult Social Care and integrated Public Health

·        Business Efficiency Projects

 

It was confirmed that the business case and options for the development would be presented to Members by July 2014, with implementation by September 2014, if approved.

 

With the significant impact of budget savings on the Council the establishment of this programme would enable reshaping of the way the Council supported residents to achieve the outcomes and quality of life residents had raised in feedback from the Big York Surveys and the Peer Review recommendations.
