Dear Michael
An interesting request. As WCC have moved from being a providing to a
commissioning organisation it is clear that Claire needs to build relationships
with potential providers. However, we must be very clear with us that
co-commissioning where the VCS provide large shares of the money to fund
services must involve the VCS at the outset in the c—design of the services
that are commissioned, rather than WCC alone writing a tender and then sending
it out to VCS. This is w very difficult mind-set for the public sector to
accept, so we must help them once they accept the principle.
Best wishes
Mark

Michael
In anticipation of our formal peer review feedback I would like to come to
Voices Board at some point over spring/summer. This would be an opportunity to
look at how the VCS works better with the County Council and vice versa and we
could also use for feedback on our corporate plan, which we are due to refresh
for November Council. Hopefully you feel this would be productive and if so
could you provide Michelle with next few dates to see if we can get one that
works.
Thanks
Clare
