Local authorities have a duty to initiate, maintain and facilitate this process and Scottish Ministers have a duty to promote and encourage the use of Community Planning.
Local Government (Scotland Act) 2003
This act provides the legislative context for Community Planning. A number of public sector organisations are statutory partners in Community Planning. These include:
In addition to the statutory partners, Community Planning Partnerships (CPPs) typically involve other public, voluntary, community and private sector partners.
Community Planning Partnerships (CPPs)
CPPs are a central feature of a programme of local government modernisation and public service reform in Scotland. They are intended to ensure that local authorities, other local public agencies and the voluntary, community and private sectors develop a shared vision for their area and work in partnership to implement this vision.
Ten local Community Planning Partnerships have been created, covering the whole of Glasgow, to work at a local level.
