Statutory Guidance: Fulfilled Lives Supportive Communities Commissioning Framework and Guidance
This circular provides Statutory Guidance on Commissioning Social Services. It is issued under section 7 of the Local Authority Social Services Act 1970.
The Framework and Guidance applies to commissioning by local authority social services. It also applies to commissioning by wider partnerships where social services are engaged. The guidance encourages partnership working.
The Commissioning Framework is further supported by the Value Wales Procurement Route Planner, which can be found at www.Buy4Wales.co.uk/PRP (external link). This includes a full suite of on-line step by step guidance developed specifically for the contracting of social care services and housing related support services, which contains many useful templates and practical advice. The route planner provides more comprehensive information than is possible in this guidance.
