1.3.1: Public Service Reform

Reform our public services.

Other Information:

In order to achieve the outcomes which matter most to the people of Scotland, we urgently need to reform our public services. Public, third sector and private organisations must work more effectively in partnership with communities and with each other to design and deliver excellent public services which meet the needs of local people. Whether our aim is to give children the best start in life, to reduce the inequalities which people face, to develop our economy and create jobs, or to ensure we manage the environment sustainably, we face an unprecedented challenge to deliver improved outcomes whilst making optimal use of increasingly limited resources. Our approach to meeting this challenge requires all public services to drive reform at a pace across mainstream services. All partners will prioritise action around four pillars ... Scottish Government is committed to creating the conditions for reform, to minimising systemic barriers to it and to supporting partners to improve the lives of local people.
