SEC manifesto 2010

The proposal relating to employment is quite interesting, community allowance and investment in local social entrepreneurs enabling them to create and sustain jobs is a commendable and can go a long way in contributing to UK PLC’s recovery. However, I do find out that I agree with some of the criticism of allowing front line public sector staff to establish social enterprises. This policy should involve the users of such services. In many instances, front line staffs are part of the problem, developing a culture that negates the needs/aspirations of users. Localised services should definitely integrate both frontline service providers and users of such services.
