Subject: Follow up on Questions raised at
the Meeting on Commissioning
Good
Afternoon Glenn, Kathy and Nick
Thank you
for meeting with us to discuss the progress of the Commissioning programme and
apologies once again that Marc was unable to attend on this occasion, this was
due to unforeseen circumstances outside of our control.
Following
on from our meeting on Friday 22nd November where you raised a
number of questions I have now had time to consult with Marc and the
Commissioning Team. Please see the answers to your questions below.
1.
Can you have a copy of the Liberata Framework agreement?
This is a matter for yourself and Mark Bowen to consider and
is not something the Commissioning Team has control over.
2. Updates on specific services and
meetings with the Commissioning Leads/Services
These meetings will happen as part of the process as and
when it is appropriate to do so, and staff, unions, Dep Reps and staff side
will be engaged in the process at the appropriate time. Where work is taking
place as part of good business practices like researching the market there is no
need for us to consult.
3. Can I send them the Project Status
Document?
This document is for the use of Doug, his Directors and the
commissioning team and not for general circulation. We can provide a cleansed
version that lists the services currently being covered by the commissioning
team; however we ran through this on Friday.
4. Can they have a copy of the Market
Intelligence Paper work?
Again, we
will consult and circulate paperwork as and when necessary and at the
appropriate time within the process.
We will
organise a quarterly meeting between Marc Hume, HR and Glenn Kelly and
colleagues to improve communications and transparency, to discuss the progress
of the programme as a whole. Communication with Staff and the Unions, Dep Reps
and Staff Side secretary will be carried out but the relevant Director and
Service managers at the appropriate time within the process for each individual
review.
Many Thanks
Emma Pearce
