Summary

In March 2005, we published jointly with HM Treasury a discussion document Securing better outcomes - developing a new performance framework, as part of the local:vision debate.

This consultation paper builds on the Securing better outcomes document by:

In Chapter 2, setting out the background and rationale for the proposed changes, covering both the public service inspection reform agenda and the new performance framework
In Chapter 3, starting to explore in more detail the role inspection should play in the future performance framework - as a means of generating debate
In Chapters 4-6, setting out proposals for establishing the local services inspectorate - covering the roles of the inspectorate, governance and funding arrangements, and issues around the merger of the Audit Commission and Benefit Fraud Inspectorate functions
In Chapter 7, setting out the timetable for taking this work forward
