Debate on the Finance Committee's Report Invest to Save
Decision Maker: Plenary - Fourth Assembly, Finance Committee - Fourth Assembly
Status: Complete
Is Key decision?: Yes
Purpose:
The Finance
Committee considered how effective the Welsh Government’s Invest to Save
Fund has been to date. The Fund is available to Welsh Government funded public
service organisations to support their strategic improvement projects which
lead to significant cash-releasing efficiency savings, while ensuring effective
citizen-centred services.
In the course of
the inquiry, the Committee considered:
- what impact is Invest to Save having, is it
meeting it’s intended purpose - “supporting organisations involved in
public service delivery make the transition to more efficient, more
effective and more sustainable forms of service delivery”?
- how widely has it been taken up?
- what are the lessons learned and could examples
of good practice be shared and extended more widely across the public
sector?
- what savings have been achieved as a result of
awards from the fund?
- are there any barriers to entry
i.e. are there any elements of the Invest to Save fund process that make
it difficult to participate in the scheme?
