    PPAARRTTNNEERRSSHHIIPP CCOOMMMMIISSSSIIOONNIINNGG SSTTRRAATTEEGGYY Presented to: Joint Committee/Strategic Management Group Author: Norman Firth Date of Document: September 2011 Date of Revision: July 2013 Document Version: 4.0 1 Version 4.0: Revised July 2013 1. Introduction In “The Guide to Strategic Commissioning” (2009), the Social Work Inspection Agency (SWIA) defines this activity as: “the term used for all the activities involved in assessing and forecasting needs, agreeing desired outcomes, considering options, planning the nature, range and quality of future services and working in partnership to put these in place.” Implicit in this and other definitions is an activity which is cyclical and therefore dynamic. SWIA illustrates this via reference to a model developed by the Institute of Public Care (IPC). “The model is based upon four key performance management elements; analyse, plan, do and review. The model requires that each of the four elements receive attention, and all are kept in balance” (SWIA: 2009 from Joint Commissioning Model for Public Care: IPC: 2006). The overarching context for Criminal Justice Social Work (CJSW) is a framework of statutory duties within a public policy context focusing on reduction of offending and public protection against a background in which the service requires to improve effectiveness and reduce costs. 2. Focus This Commissioning Strategy relates to Criminal Justice Social Work Services. CJSW services principal duties and tasks relate to the assessment and supervision of offenders in the community either through the medium of community sentences or post release supervision following a custodial sentence. The Strategy refers to CJSW services and functions organised and delivered via formal partnership between Argyll and Bute, West Dunbartonshire and East Dunbartonshire Councils; referred to below as the Partnership (see below, Governance).

    West Dunbartonshire Council Report by the Director of Education and Cultural Services Children’s Services Committee: 15 March 2006 Subject: Proposal for increased swimming lesson charges in 2006/2007 1. Purpose 1.1 To propose an increase in the current charges applied to swimming lessons delivered by the Sports Development Unit, Education and Cultural Services Department. 2. Background 2.1 West Dunbartonshire Council’s Swimming Development programme has continued to maintain very high levels of quality service over the past ten years. Over two thousand children participate in the Swimming Development programme every week. This programme has a strong link with Housing and Technical Services as the programme is delivered within their three sports centres; The Vale of Leven Swimming Pool, The Meadow Centre in Dumbarton and The Playdrome in Clydebank. 2.2 Maintaining income levels over the past ten years has been achieved by increasing the number of classes provided by the service. However facility availability is a finite resource and the development programme is finding it increasingly difficult to maintain growth in the numbers participating in the programme. 2.3 In partnership with Leisure Services, Housing and Technical Services Department, the successful ‘Passport to Leisure’ scheme continues to apply for the booking of Sports Development’s swimming lessons. This scheme provides members with a 20% discount on the prices of all swimming lessons. While the ‘Passport to Leisure’ scheme has been a success for Housing and Technical Services, in terms of the numbers of people becoming members, it has had the effect of reducing substantially the income being generated by Education and Cultural Services ‘Learn to Swim Scheme’.

Introduction The Forth Valley and Lomond LEADER area encompasses the rural areas of Stirling, Clackmannanshire and West Dunbartonshire. The area crosses three local authority areas, two Scottish Enterprise regions, two Forestry Commission areas, two Rural Payments and Inspections Divisions, one National Park and one VisitScotland Region. An area criss-crossed with administrative boundaries, the geography crosses these boundaries, with the area stretching from the spectacular Highland mountain scenery around Crianlarich and Tyndrum, across the Highland boundary fault line, with its forests and lochs, down to the more rolling hills of the Ochils, Campsies and the Kilpatrick Hills until it meets the fringes of the urbanised central belt of Clydebank, Stirling and Alloa.

  • Respondent Information Form
    CONSULTATION QUESTIONS NUTS boundaries are used for reporting of regional statistics to Eurostat and those statistics are used to inform regional policy. The Scottish Government is proposing to make minimal changes beyond aligning existing NUTS boundaries to Local Authority Boundaries. Do you have any comments on the Scottish Governments proposals for NUTS 2 regions? We agree that the NUTS 2 area boundaries should be contiguous to the boundaries of the relevant Local Authorities. We agree therefore that the Highlands and Islands NUTS 2 areas should be expanded to include all of Argyll and Bute within a single unit. The Isle of Arran and the Cumbraes should move into South Western NUTS 2 area so that they are included in the same region as the Mainland part of North Ayrshire administrative area. Do you have any comments on the Scottish Governments proposals for NUTS 3 regions? We agree that NUTS 3 area boundaries should be contiguous with the boundaries of the relevant Local Authorities. We agree therefore that the boundaries of East, Dunbartonshire, West Dunbartonshire and Helensburgh and Lomond should become East and West Dunbartonshire reflecting the local Authority Boundary of the same names. East and North Ayrshire NUTS areas should become East and North Ayrshire, containing both the mainland and island parts of the East Ayrshire and North Ayrshire Local Authorities. And that 3 new NUTS areas; Highlands, Moray and Argyll and Bute will align themselves to the Local Authority areas of the same name, replacing Caithness and Sutherland, Ross and Cromarty, Inverness and Nairn, Moray and Badenoch and Strathspey and Lochaber, Skye and Lochalsh, Arran & Cumbrae Eurostat have requested we consider merging the Highlands & Islands with North Eastern Scotland to create a new area that’s closer to the recommended population thresholds.

    West Dunbartonshire Council Report by the Director of Education and Cultural Services Children’s Services Committee: 17 May 2006 Subject: Proposal for increased swimming lesson charges in 2006/2007 1. Purpose 1.1 To propose an increase in the current charges applied to swimming lessons delivered by the Sports Development Unit, Education and Cultural Services Department. 1.2 To provide the committee with additional information on the number of people accessing swimming lessons from outwith West Dunbartonshire Council and a further analysis of swimming lesson prices with comparator local authorities. Please note that committee members requested this information at the previous Children’s Services Committee of 15 March 2006. 2. Background 2.1 An earlier report, dated 15 March 2006 compared various local authorities’ swimming lesson prices. This analysis indicated that West Dunbartonshire Council’s charges are low when compared with those in the other local authorities included in the report. 2.2 The report also highlighted the fact that large numbers of non-residents are accessing swimming lessons provided by the Council, presumably as a result of low charges. This trend reduces the number of spaces available to West Dunbartonshire’s council tax payers. 2.3 The committee noted the issues included in the report and decided that the proposal would be considered further at today’s meeting. 2.4 The Sports Development Unit struggles to develop and improve its programmes as a result of the low charges of swimming lessons. 3. Main Issues 3.1 Swimming Lessons 3.1.1 Analysis of swimming lesson prices in comparator local authorities reveals that the cost of West Dunbartonshire Council swimming lessons currently appears to be by far the lowest.

The woman, traditionally known as Janet Horne, warmed herself, thinking the fire had been lit to take the chill from her bones and not, as was actually intended, to burn her to death. Or so the story goes. This case is well known as the last example of the barbarous practice of burning witches in Scotland. It is also infamous for some of its more unusual characteristics – such as the alleged witch ‘having ridden upon her own daughter’, whom she had ‘transformed into a pony’, and of course, the memorable image of the poor, deluded soul warming herself while the instruments of her death were being prepared. Impressive materials, though the most familiar parts of the story did not appear in print until at least 92 years after the event!1 Ironically, although Gaelic-speaking Scotland has been noted for the relative absence of formal witch persecutions, it has become memorable as the part of Scotland that punished witches later than anywhere else.

  • West Dunbartonshire Council
    WEST DUNBARTONSHIRE COUNCIL Report by the Chief Executive Community Participation Committee: 19 November 2008 ___________________________________________________________________ Subject: Scottish Parliament Constituency Boundaries 1. Purpose 1.1 The Committee, at its meeting on 17 September 2008, requested a background report on the current proposals to amend the constituency boundaries for the Scottish Parliament. 2. Background 2.1 Legislation provides for regular reviews of constituency boundaries and the new boundaries will be in effect for the next Scottish Parliament elections to be held in May 2011. Reviews are carried out by the Boundaries Commission for Scotland. 2.2 The Commission published its provisional proposals for the review on 14 February 2008. These proposals advertised in the local press and notices with explanatory information were lodged for consultation in council offices and main libraries. The proposals were submitted to Council at its meeting of 27 February. They comprise:- 1) linking two of West Dunbartonshire’s wards, Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront, with part of the Renfrewshire Council area to create the North Renfrewshire and Clydebank Burgh Constituency; and 2) joining the Kilpatrick Ward with Dumbarton, Lomond and Leven wards and two wards of Argyll and Bute Council to form the Dumbarton and Helensburgh County Constituency. 2.3 The Council duly objected to the proposals for both constituencies on the grounds that Kilpatrick Ward should not be split from the other two Clydebank wards and that the linking of Clydebank Central and Clydebank Waterfront wards with areas in Renfrewshire Council was anomalous and unacceptable. 2.4 Where a local authority submits an objection to a proposed boundary, a Local Inquiry must be held.
