CLG Framework: Delivery of Public Services by Faith Based Groups
The involvement of the Voluntary and Community Sector in the delivery of public services is a declared government policy, and this includes faith based groups. The Framework acknowledges the potential benefits that faith groups can contribute and some of the issues that might arise (page 33). It proposes working with the faith communities, the Local Government Association and the Charity Commission to produce a standardised version of a charter for excellence in public service delivery by faith communities building on existing models.
What do you think needs to go into such a Charter?
How should it be developed?
