As a Cooperative Council, Newcastle aspires to ensure that services are delivered in cooperation with communities so that we can make informed choices about priorities and future service delivery.
Market Position Statements (MPS) are the first step towards achieving this cooperative ideal in the commissioning of services. They are designed to help providers and the people who use services in the city to understand what is currently on offer, and also what the council thinks services might look like in the future.
We would like to get your views as providers and users of services in the city on the draft MPS for Looked After Children. Please send your comments to adult.commissioning@newcastle.gov.uk by 5pm on 21/10/2016.
