OBJECTIVES1. Build awareness and understanding of the scale of demographic and
financial pressures on Welsh public services now and over the next 10-15 years
2. Explore how Welsh Public Services can both respond to these pressures and increase their contribution to economic wellbeing - so that the most vulnerable and those in poverty are best protected from the impact of reducing resources at a time of increasing demand
3. Create a ‘civic space’ in which radical and innovative ideas for Welsh public services can be considered, debated and potentially adopted
4. Crucially this work will consider both innovative models of service delivery and changes to the public service system required for such innovations to be sustained.
