Cabinet Office publish 'Social Value Act: One Year On'
The Cabinet Office have published a useful update on the Public Services (Social Value) Act - which came into place in January 2013.
Particularly helpful are some very practical examples of how local areas have used the Act when commissioning services.
There is also an overview of other guidance and legislation (like the Compact and Best Value Statutory Guidance) which 'together set a clear framework for considering social value in commissioning'.
