7. SNP Manifesto…. John Swinney: A Balanced Budget Public Service Reform We will continue the successful programme of simplification, looking for further opportunities to streamline our public bodies. We will take every opportunity to reduce costs and bureaucracy and improve service delivery. For example, we will maintain a focus on scrutiny improvement which will enable us to deliver savings of at least 20% in the overall direct costs of scrutiny over the next parliamentary term. We are pursuing innovative approaches to public services, such as the pilots for the Integrated Resource Framework for health and community care. Our Public Services Reform Act means we now have the ability to move swiftly in future with further reform and simplification measures. We are focused on maintaining and improving levels of services and support moves across the public sector towards more collaboration and sharing of services. There is great potential for us to work with other public sector organisations to deliver improved public services through digital technology, including through the Scottish Government-backed Customer First programme. This programme aims to deliver more convenient and responsive public services, encourage online access to services, and ensure that at least 75% of core service requests can be handled at first point of contact. Through Customer First we will take forward a programme of delivery improvement including national infrastructure to support local authorities in delivering services, for example shared data storage space, and the National Entitlement Card, a smartcard for people to conveniently access services, which replaces the numerous other card schemes in Scotland. Our Citizen Account System will also enable the public sector to deliver a wider and better range of online services. And our proposal for a DirectScot portal aims to improve access to public services and information by providing a single convenient access point. The project is currently in a prototype phase, and we are aiming for an initial launch later in 2011.
