Scottish Local Government Services List (SLGSL)www.esd.org.uk/standards/slgsl
How SLGSL helps • It defines services so that everyone understands what they are (common language) • It fits together with the SLGNL and IPSV • It links in with the Executive’s ESD categories • It evolves with your experiences of what works • It’s centrally maintained so saves you time and money • Fits together with the Local Government Interaction List (LGIL) to enables benchmarking / measurement / costing
SLGNL • Draft available after Steering Group ratification • Polyhierarchical • Customer-facing • Covers all services on SLGSL
A - Z A • Common A-Z gives users a consistent way to find services and information. • Helps citizens that aren’t comfortable with search or ‘drill-down’ methods of finding information. Council tax benefit Benefit – council tax Z
Integrated Public Sector Vocabulary (IPSV) • Coming to Scotland Mandated for local authorities in England and Wales • Facilitates inter-operability across public sector • Will allow users to find ‘more like this’
Sustaining the project for the long term An editorial panel will: • Review submissions for inclusion/amendment • Suggest changes when outside influences affect the lists e.g. changes in legislation • Ensure that the objectives and requirements of each list are met • Ensure that the advice they give is impartial and takes into account the needs of the public sector as a a whole • Ensure that the quality and credibility of the list is maintained
