  • Devon Districts Procurement Strategy 2019-2022
    Devon Districts Procurement Strategy 2019-2022 1 CONTENTS Introduction Background Outcomes Action Plan Contacts 2 Introduction This is the third iteration of the Devon District Procurement Strategy. The strategy sets out our vision and our priorities for the next four years to 2022 incorporating the latest government procurement legislation and initiatives. We aim to provide quality services that are responsive to the needs of our communities and deliver optimum value for money. The strategy sets out how we aim to achieve this over the longer term and includes an action plan for the forthcoming year which will be regularly reviewed and a new action plan produced each year. By taking a collaborative approach we can improve the quality of the goods, services and works which we purchase whilst still seeking to achieve value for money and make the savings necessary to support the austerity measures. The Devon Districts who will be adopting this strategy are: Exeter City Council Mid Devon District Council North Devon District Council South Hams District Council Teignbridge District Council Torridge District Council West Devon Borough Council. It is the intention of the majority of Districts that this will be the sole procurement strategy for their council. What is procurement? Procurement is concerned with securing goods, works and services. The process spans the whole cycle, from identification of needs through to the end of a service or the end of the useful life of an asset and its disposal. It is concerned with securing goods and services that best meet the needs of users and the local community in order to help achieve our key priorities.

  • Dartmoor Way Summary
    THE DARTMOOR WAY PROJECT The project is managed by a Steering Group representing the statutory bodies DNPA and DCC together with business members. A Community Interest Company – the Dartmoor Way CIC has been established to take responsibility for finance and ongoing maintenance. The project aims to create a Way Marked walking route around the perimeter of Dartmoor, see below for an indicative map. The aim is to make the route much more accessible to the public who will be able to use the route without being proficient in map reading. A necessary element is good marketing of the new facility. This will be achieved by developing the existing Cycle Route web site and the use of a good public relations to support the launch and ongoing marketing. A volunteer team will deliver ongoing maintenance of the signing and the marketing. The planned outputs are believed to be the absolute minimum achievable. The project will deliver income to suppliers and businesses along the route not directly to the Dartmoor Way CIC. The absolute minimum target for additional income is £58,000. This is expected to create additional employment of 4.5 FTE. We are about to revise the original feasibility study to develop more accurate estimate of income. The Dartmoor Way Walking Route is Phase 3 of a multi-phase project. A Feasibility Study and the Cycle Route, have been delivered successfully by the Steering Group under EU funding rules. A similar approach will be used for this phase of the project. The project aims to increase tourist activity around the perimeter of Dartmoor.

  • Statement of Intent
    Energy Company Obligation: Help to Heat Local Authority Flexible Eligibility Statement of Intent Local authority: West Devon Borough Council and South Hams District Council Date of publication: 14 December 2017 Version: 2 URL: https://www.westdevon.gov.uk/article/4188/Reducing-Fuel-Bills https://www.southhams.gov.uk/article/4187/Reducing-Fuel-Bills 1. Introduction West Devon Borough Council and South Hams District Council welcomes the introduction of Flexible Eligibility (FE) and intends to utilise it for the purposes of reducing fuel poverty in the borough. South Hams West Devon Regional Average 12.2% Number of households 5113 3622 Percentage of households 13.2% 15.2% (Government statistics) Fuel poverty is more prevalent in groups with low household incomes, including pensioners, benefit recipient, and working families with below average incomes. Fuel poverty is highest and has increased fastest, in the most deprived areas. The low wage economy, particularly in West Devon and higher living costs contribute further to levels of fuel poverty. The council runs a number a loan schemes, as well as being a part of Devon-wide schemes and initiatives to tackle fuel poverty and improve housing conditions for those who are particularly vulnerable to the cold in the private sector. One of the primary objectives of Environmental Health is to remedy category 1 hazards, excess cold being one which is particularly focused on and is the result of lack of heating and insulation. West Devon Borough Council and South Hams District Council will take advantage of this new Flexible Eligibility scheme so that as many residents can benefit as possible, and so that those who don’t qualify through existing schemes but are in fuel poverty can obtain financial help to install key energy measures.

Introduction This report aims to highlight the headlines of the work undertaken by the two Formulary Interface Groups for April 2015 – March 2016. The aim of the Devon Formularies is to promote prescribing which is safe, clinically appropriate and cost-effective in both primary and secondary care, providing guidance on locally recommended drug choices. In compiling the formularies consideration is given to aspects of safety, appropriateness and cost effectiveness. There will be instances where prescribing outside of the formularies will be both necessary and appropriate. The formularies are not restrictive lists but recommendations drawn up after widespread consultation amongst prescribers locally and the NHS trusts involved. The formularies are delivered through the Formulary Interface groups (FIGs) which reflect natural healthcare communities clustered around the major hospitals in Devon. After the successful merger into two formularies from the four which had served the Devon health communities prior to the NHS restructure bought about by the Health and Social Care act 2012, the Devon Formularies have continued to develop, working within a common framework.
