  1. Shaping the “New” Agenda for Integration, Information and Joined up Services People First Peter McLeod Vice President Association of Directors of Social Work

  2. Political context • Oct 2009 - Labour party conference, Oban • Nov 2009 - SNP Government announce Change Fund • Feb 2010 – Herald story • May 2010 – election and cross party manifesto consensus on integration to some degree

  3. “38,000 council workers facing a switch to NHS” 2nd February 2011

  4. ADSW’s perspective • Achieving the best outcomes for the people who use our services • Early intervention • Personalised care, power, choice and control for individuals • Supporting and empowering communities and carers • Seamless pathways of care • Equitable access • Local democratic control • Evidence based decision making • Cost neutral / cost saving, transparent and multi-sectoral reform • Promotion of social welfare

  5. ADSW’s contribution • A research literature review commissioned • A position paper agreed • An engagement commenced

  6. Context we are operating in • Congruence with developments in England: The Future’s Forum • Importance of community planning and the single outcome agreement • The current agenda and work in this area: Change Fund; joint initiatives we have already established • A vacuum of information from now until the consultation document is published after the local government elections in May

  7. Influencing the debate • Meaningful and comprehensive engagement in the consultation • Engagement with our own members • Engagement with partners in local authorities, NHS, third and independent sectors • Parliamentary reception • Useful and insightful comment on the conclusion drawn from the consultation • Dedicated involvement in the drafting of legislation • Professional advice • Work to limit unintended consequences

  8. Issues we are concerned about • We need to maintain pressure to ensure services are delivered and outcomes determined at a local level • We need to understand more about what a single accountable officer is and how that role will play out • We need to understand more about what a Health and Social Care Partnership is • We need others to realise the importance of any impact of change on other services within social work and within the wider community planning framework • We need to know about the number of partnerships and how they will be governed • We will continue to emphasise the crucial role of the CSWO

  9. The future “If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there” Lewis Carroll
