One Newport LSB

Partnership Event

April 2012

Introduction

Tracey Lee Managing Director Newport City Council

• To inform you of the new partnership arrangements for

Newport, to be implemented June 2012.

• To acknowledge the success and achievements of current

partnership arrangements

• To explain why and how we will review and implement the

new arrangements

Purpose

Why?

• Recent developments such as the Unified Needs

Assessment, Community Strategy and Single Integrated Plan have highlighted the potential to explore closer working relationships between partnerships

• Welsh Government draft statutory guidance ‘Shared

Purpose – Shared Delivery’ outlines two key principles:

• 1. Development of a single, integrated plan to replace

existing plans by 1 April 2013

• 2. Rationalisation of partnership arrangements to

deliver against this agenda

Drivers for Change

• Greater clarity on role of Local Service Board
• Provide a more coherent framework for delivery of services
• Reducing complexity and duplication
• Improving outcomes and delivery
• Strengthening accountability, scrutiny and performance

management

• Support the development of a Single Plan
• Centralised Partnership Support Team

How are we reviewing partnerships arrangements?

Rhys Cornwall Children & Young People’s Partnership Manager

Building Blocks

Single integrated plan

• Population and performance outcomes
• Discharging CYPP / CSP / HSCW duties

Rationalisation of Partnerships

• LSB determines partnership structure

Strengthened Accountability

• Scrutiny / inspection / audit

Robust evidence base & analysis (UNA)

• Statistical / qualitative / evaluative / citizen voice

• Second edition of UNA - more detail and analysis to meet

needs of community safety planning

• Provides a robust evidence base to develop Single Plan
• Format is based on current outcomes in the Community

Strategy, using a RBA approach

• Welsh Government draft guidance states “it is the role of the

LSB to use its local needs analysis to determine which will be the highest priorities for local action. There is an expectation from the Welsh Government that a single integrated plan should be underpinned by a single needs assessment, but this should be viewed as part of a more innovative and thorough approach to evidence and analysis.”

Unified Needs Assessment

Single Plan

Awaiting statutory guidance from Welsh Government. Single Integrated Plan to be published 1 April 2013. Single plan to include: – Vision (long term vision for local area) – Analysis (based on UNA) – Action Plan (priority outcomes and clear action plan) – Enabling Strategies (information & engagement) – Assurance (governance, PM, scrutiny)
