  • Local Government Essays
    Collection of Essays on Local Government Mike Hedges AM July 2019 1 Essay 1 Structure of public services in Wales Essay 2 Council tax, council size and council performance Essay 3 Regional footprint and joint working Essay 4 Improving democracy and aligning services with Swansea city region Essay 5 Council tax 2 The reorganisation of the Welsh Government funded Welsh public sector Over the last 25 years there have been service reorganisations that have created larger organisations throughout the Welsh Government controlled public sector. There is generally a political consensus at the National Assembly that larger organisations are betters than smaller ones and that mergers are generally a good thing. Currently in Wales we have: • The Welsh Ambulance Service (WAST) that was established in 1998 by the amalgamation of four existing ambulance Trusts, and the ambulance service provided by Pembrokeshire and Derwen NHS Trust. • Public Health Wales was created at the same time as the local health boards by the merger of National Public Health Service, Wales Centre for Health, Welsh Cancer Intelligence & Surveillance Unit, Congenital Anomaly Register & Information Service for Wales, and Screening Services Wales. • 7 local Health boards that now plan, secure and deliver healthcare services in their areas, replacing the 22 LHBs and the 7 NHS Trusts which together performed these functions previously. The population sizes vary between Powys at just over 130,000 to Betsi Cadwaladr at just under 700,000. • The National Procurement Service was more recently created by the Welsh Government on 12 March 2013. Its remit is to secure in the region of £1bn worth of goods and services in common and repetitive spend.
