The Primary Goal of the Glasgow Community Planning Partnership is outlined in the city's Community Plan 2005-2010:
"We will create a transformed and vibrant Glasgow where people choose to live, where the River Clyde is brought back to life and where Glaswegians are fully involved in the life of the whole city".
Glasgow Community Planning Ltd will support the Partnership to achieve this goal. The five strategic objectives or 'themes' of the Community Plan are a healthy, working, learning, safe and vibrant Glasgow. Further details of the plan can be viewed from the key publications section of this web site.
The Community Plan underpins the development and delivery of the Single Outcome Agreement (SOA) for Glasgow, 2008-2011. The purpose of the Single Outcome Agreement is to identify areas for improvement and to deliver better outcomes for the people of Glasgow and Scotland, through specific commitments made by Glasgow’s Community Planning Partners and Scottish Government.
Each party to this Agreement is mutually accountable for the delivery of the agreed outcomes, which means that each partner:
- will jointly take ownership and responsibility for their respective contributions to the agreed outcomes; and
- will be able to hold each other to account for the delivery of specific commitments they make to enable the delivery of the agreed outcomes
This agreement reflects a new relationship between the Scottish Government and Local Government and one that the Partnership is committed to developing.
The partnership will also shortly finalise its proposals for the allocation of
Fairer Scotland Funds (FSF) to 2011. These proposals will replace those previously implemented under the city’s
Regeneration Outcome Agreement 2005-2008.
The FSF is a new fund set up by Scottish Government
to promote effective joint working and to act as a catalyst for galvanising mainstream resources and budgets with Community Planning partners to create lasting change that will benefit the most disadvantaged communities and people.
The Fairer Scotland Fund proposals will outline those specific local outcomes within the SOA that will be developed by CPP partners using this investment.
