New Community Rights BUILD BID CHALLENGE
Community Right to Challenge CHALLENGE challenge and take over a council service they think can be better run
CHALLENGE When can we submit an EOI? • At anytime. Unless… • The LA specifies periods for submitting EOI (inc beginning and end dates)
CHALLENGE Who can submit an Expression of Interest? • charities • voluntary organisations • parish councils • 2 or more employees of the Local Authority involved in that service
CHALLENGE Then what? • LA must respond in writing • If accepted a commissioning and procurement process is triggered • If not - gives reasons for rejection • Rejection of EOI only on grounds set out in regulations
CHALLENGE Challenges • But what is the market? - Local Authority budgets cut • Smaller contracts - Be careful what you wish for! • Opening the door for others • Potential for creating conflict with LA • LAs dealing with what seems like contradictory policy (Localism vs Gershon)
CHALLENGE Opportunities • Encourages ‘local thinking’ • Co-design of services • Breaking down contract size • A catalyst for voluntary & community sector collaboration
Community Right to Challenge CHALLENGE any questions?
