Collaboration
Public services that share resources and expertise can achieve compelling results. How can this fit with organisational accountability and targets?

	Joined up public services The collaboration credit model is an online trading tool, public services and third sector organisations earn points by contributing resources to another organisation. These points can then be exchanged for resources from another organisation. For example a local Authority provides an accountant for a week to help a local charity, the small local charity runs a kids arts project at the local hospital and the local hospital provides a change manager to support the Local Authority.    The collaboration credit model is being developed in collaboration with Public Service Management Wales (PSMW) of the Welsh Assembly Government and with initial investment from the University of Wales, Newport.
