Keynote Address
David Clark (confirmed)
Director General, Society of Local Authority Chief Executives (SOLACE)
“Opening up public services”
The government is keen to open up public service delivery to as wide a variety of organisations as possible. Implementing this policy will gradually transform the way public services are delivered. It will not be easy and it is important to recognise the opportunities and how they can be realised, and the issues and how to handle them.

However, the recent OFT study identified that an over-emphasis on procedural procurement has failed to deliver the twin objectives of value for money and investment in the UK economy through more effective competition. The report proposes some practical steps to remedy this.
