11. Commission on the Future Delivery of Public Services in Scotland Ruth Wishart, Commission member 17 March 2011

12. Christie Commission: evidence from CCPS Our locus in relation to the commission’s business: Major stake in public service delivery supporting 230,000 people and their families employing over 40,000 staff managing combined income of over £1bn (average 74% per member is public money) highest concentration of high performing services in many areas

13. Achieving positive outcomes Obstacle: financial penalties for providers that move people on in their lives and reduce/withdraw support Solution: develop system of financial incentives for success, as measured by moving people on in their lives and reducing/withdrawing support

14. Wider organisational arrangements Obstacle: impact of third sector ‘upstream activity’ is not felt by the public body that funds it – hence constant pressure to cut costs even if it affects impact Solution: whole-systems approach to third sector funding

15. Third sector experiences of service delivery Positive: market share; quality record; impact; support from public; support from service users Less positive: unsatisfactory relationships with funding authorities that curtail potential Solutions: greater respect and engagement; greater use of self directed support; greater transparency and comparability of costs, quality and impact
