This document is the framework that was developed from the Stronger Local Voice consultation and the advice that we received. The framework was developed in response to the commitment made to provide a stronger voice for individuals and communities in health and social care services.
The purpose of the new framework is to make sure that the needs, preferences and involvement of local people, including those that are seldom heard, are central to the planning, development and delivery of health and social care services.
This response document is in four parts:
- Part 1 - Summary of responses and our comments
- Part 2 - Other issues raised by respondents and our response
- Part 3 - More detail about how LINks might work
- Part 4 - What happens next
Erratum (2 January 2007): Due to a printing error the attached response document had shown South Dorset as one of the seven early adopter project sites (see page 48 of the document). This is incorrect and should read Dorset. We have written to the leader of Dorset Council apologising for this error.
