This article highlights that Bangladesh has not been able to achieve desired success in implementing Public Administration Reform Commission’s (PARC) new public management (NPM)-driven reform recommendations as there are major challenges such as lack of political commitment, bureaucratic unwillingness to bring about change, lack of advocacy for NPM reform among the people and inefficient public service management. To face the challenges of NPM reform implementation, it is needed to ensure political commitment, bureaucratic support, awareness among the people through government, non-government and social organisations.

Summary The Civil Service Act, passed in 1918, had never been substantially modified for the 43 years following its adoption. In 1957 however the Government asked the Civil Service Commission to review personnel procedure in the Government Service and to prepare a report. The report produced was entitled Personnal Administration in the Public Service. The following article is an analysis of Bill C-71, which resulted from the Commission's report and from the work of a Special Committee of the House established in 1961.

The paper reflects about the need to introduce and develop approaches and tools for public services evaluation. Starting from the acknowledgment that investments in public services has dramatically increased over the last decade, we could state that they must also respond to new varieties of societal challenges and rising demands coming from service users. This pressure makes a strong push upon innovation considering that, if services must be designed to meet the complex needs of users, they also must reach a high rate of delivering cost efficiency.This article proposes an approach based on qualitative and quantitative measurements throughout the whole service design process in which service evaluation may represent a tool for value creation and a driver for innovation in public sector.Considering the emerging interest on evaluating design and innovation (OECD, 2010; European Commission, 2012) the authors try to explore existing evaluation methods for services in public sector, in order to define an evaluation framework that could support new innovation patterns.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Alongside the process of legislative review and enactment, questions of administrative structure and implementation received lively consideration. At stake were such issues as whether to treat the new scheme as a matter of law reform or an aspect of social security. ACC's eventual status as an independent commission posed challenges to public officials from several departments, while preserving certain tensions that would emerge later in the 1970s. This paper credits the New Zealand public service for its creative response to implementing ACC, which required it to bridge the structural divides and alternative conceptions of how the new scheme might work. The paper describes the pivotal decisions and persons that guided ACC into its initial decade.

Chimakati, Fredrick Mutsoli. "Influence of Ethical Sourcing Practices on Performance of Teachers Service Commission of Kenya". Journal of Procurement & Supply Chain 4, n. 1 (6 aprile 2020): 38–54. http://dx.doi.org/10.53819/81018102t2091.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ethical sourcing practices are acceptable standards that professionals in the supply chain management should adopt to ensure sustainable institutional operations. There is more emphasis on ethical sourcing in Kenyans public procurement system since the enactment of the new constitution 2010. However, sourcing in the commission is marked with unethical practices. These ethical malpractices may damage the state agencies’ performance; undermine public confidence in governments’ leadership and governance. The purpose of the study was to analyze the influence of ethical sourcing practices on performance of Teachers Service Commission of Kenya. The study's objectives were to examine the influence of transparency practices on TSC performance, assess influence of integrity practices on performance of TSC and, to evaluate influence of accountability practices on performance of TSC. The study was guided by three theories namely: Deontological theories-Kantian ethics, Teleological theories-utilitarianism and Dynamic capabilities theory. The target population comprised of 1351 TSC secretariat staff from among seven TSC directorates and Supply Chain Management Services (SCMS). Stratified proportionate sampling was used to select a sample of 239 employees. A descriptive research design was adopted in the study. Data was collected using a semi - structured questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. Presentation was in form of percentages, frequencies, and tables. Key findings of study included: A response rate of 96.2 % was realized found to be adequate and sufficient to undertake data analysis. Majority of the respondents strongly agreed that the commission had embraced ethical sourcing practices (Transparency, integrity and accountability) and had consequently improved its customer’s satisfaction levels. The study recommends adoption of ethical sourcing practices by organizations so as to optimize their operations. The researcher recommends a similar study on other organizations both private and public based on the study’s findings, shareholders, management and policy makers in the public service sector and other sectors can make informed decisions on the ethics and organization performance. To uphold research ethics, permission to collect data was sought from the University, NACOSTI as well as Teachers’ service commission.

This study analyses the extent to which European legislation and, in particular, the latest regulatory initiatives for audiovisual media and for digital markets and services affect the regulation of public service media (PSM) in Spain. A three-fold analysis is performed using a document review methodology. Firstly, the influence of European competition policies on the origin, development and adaptation of PSM to the digital market is studied. Secondly, the transposition into Spanish law of the 2018 Audiovisual Media Services Directive (EU, 2018) is evaluated. Third and lastly, the impact of the draft European Acts referring to digital platforms on PSM in Spain and the European Union (European Commission, 2020a; 2020b) is analysed, as is that of the European Media Freedom Act (European Commission, 2022). The concept of Europeanisation (Harcourt, 2002) is taken as the basis for the assessment of such impact. The conclusions show that while the European regulatory umbrella is a necessary and influential framework, it is insufficient when it comes to understanding the regulatory and political development of PSM in Spain. The path dependence and circumstances of each country are crucial to understanding the why and how of specific regulation. There is European convergence on economic and competition policy protection issues, but not on political and cultural issues, such as the definition of PSM governance or structure, where the European Union’s influence is much weaker.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The process of European Union(EU) rail market liberalisation is now at a tipping point, with the fourth railway package approved by the European Parliament and Commission and the Member States that have to embed its mandates and provisions into their national legislation. To a large extent, this has already been achieved. The railway package is structured in two main pillars – market pillar and technical pillar – with specific objectives. My paper will focus on the market pillar, particularly on the new challenges that the liberalisation of the EU passenger rail market will generate on public service contracts in effect as of 2023. The establishment of the single European railway area requires common rules on the award of public service contracts in this sector, while taking into account the specific circumstances of each Member State. Public service contracts for public passenger transport services by rail should be awarded on the basis of a competitive tendering procedure. Procedures for competitive tendering of public service contracts should be open to all operators, should be fair and should respect the principles of transparency and non-discrimination. This paper will analyse the new legal challenges that public service contracts in railway transport will encounter and what their impact will be on the process of liberalisation or the EU passenger rail market.

Objectives To evaluate the effect of Care Quality Commission external inspections of acute trusts on adverse event rates in the English National Health Service. Methods Interrupted time-series analysis including all acute NHS trusts in England ( n = 155) using two control groups (new versus historical inspection regime and trusts not inspected). Multilevel random-coefficient modelling of (1) rates of falls with harm and (2) pressure ulcers, from April 2012 to June 2016, was undertaken using the new, resource-intensive regime of Care Quality Commission inspections as an intervention. Data used in the model included dates and type of inspection, patient safety indicators, demographic characteristics and financial risk of hospitals. Results In one year, Care Quality Commission inspected 66 acute trusts (42% of all English trusts) using their new regime and 46 (30%) using their previous one. Prior to inspections being announced, rates of falls with harm and pressure ulcers were improving in both intervention and control hospitals. The announcement of an inspection did not affect either indicator. After inspections, rates of falls with harm improved more slowly, and pressure ulcer rates no longer improved for trusts inspected using both regimes. Conclusions Neither form of external inspection was associated with positive, clinically significant effects on adverse event rates. Any improvement happening before the announced Care Quality Commission inspections slowed after the inspection.

AbstractThe concept of commissioning has risen in prominence in recent years as a result of ongoing reforms to the funding and delivery of public services in the UK. The model of commissioning constructed by policy has however been overlaid on existing practices, which themselves differ between different service areas. This paper, focusing on commissioning of third sector organisations (TSOs) in the field of community mental health services, shows that its introduction has not led to the straightforward public sector ‘marketisation’ that advocates desire or that critics fear. Instead, commissioning has led to an indeterminate outcome or ‘halfway house’ position in which the status and role of commissioning remains somewhat muddled – both internally to participants within public sector organisations and externally in terms of the experience of the interface by TSOs. We found that commissioning as it is actually practiced remains contested and political – it is a highly relational process dependent on personal practices and skills and on personal relationships between stakeholders – and is therefore not fully managerialised or marketised. This has implications for the policy and practice of commissioning and the interpretation of more ‘open’ public services.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Expanding mandatory selective service registration in the United States to include women would seem to be good public policy that increases national security and reduces gender bias. Despite the recent recommendation of a congressionally-mandated commission, recent efforts to implement this important reform have repeatedly stalled. Why? In this article, we explain the failure of selective service reform through the lens of American political institutions. Neither the composition of the Supreme Court, nor the institutional incentives facing legislators, are conducive to movement on this issue. Building on the legislative entrepreneurship literature, we argue that recent trends in congressional representation and the adoption of new issue framings are the most likely factors that will increase the probability of selective service reform. The absence of selective service reform in the United States reveals important facts about agenda-setting in defense policy and how political institutions shape the relationship between the public and the military.

The article presents the author’s vision of the role of public-private partnership in preventing the commission of new crimes in correctional institutions of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia on the example of extremist crimes. The dynamics of the growth of extremist crimes in the period from 2002 to 2022 inclusive is demonstrated. The prevalence of AUE ideology in places of detention is shown. It is noted that the current trend of combating various forms of extremist manifestations is represented in a whole set of regulatory legal acts, the main of which are the federal laws «On countering extremist activity», «On the basics of the system of crime prevention in the Russian Federation», the Strategy of Countering Extremism in the Russian Federation until 2025, the National Security Strategy of the Russian Federation. A study of the main determinants of crimes committed on the basis of motives of hatred or enmity has been conducted. The directions of preventing the commission of new extremist crimes in correctional institutions of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, including within the framework of public-private partnership, are presented.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The prevention of corruption in non-profit organizations and public interest organizations that serve the public interest in the private sector plays an important role in pursuing the public good and enhances trust and confidence in the private sector. In our anti-corruption law system, prevention of corruption in the private sector is added to the provisions on breach of trust under criminal law. The Public Interest Whistleblower Protection Act regulates the protection of whistleblowers, and the Medical Service Act, Medical Device Act, Pharmaceutical Affairs Act, etc., are governed by regulations prohibiting receiving bribes or similar payments. There is a need to introduce regulations for non-profit corporations through a legislative reform of the anti-corruption law system. In that sense, we looked at the legal system and regulations on the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission of Australia and considered the implications for improving future anti-corruption legislation in the private sector. In the case of Australia, non-profit charitable corporations are generally afforded with public trust and confidence through the ongoing disclosure, transparency, public education, and independent and powerful authority of the Charity Commission, while sufficiently guaranteeing citizens' autonomy and enjoying tax benefits. We also need to refer to the model of discipline based on autonomy and trust. Regarding the discipline of public interest corporations, it is necessary to consider implementing a newly established public interest committee to prevent dual supervision issues with existing authorities and supervisory agencies such as the National Tax Service, and to develop a new independent management and supervision body as in the case of Australia.

The advent of Compulsory Competitive Tendering (CCT)1 exposes large swathes of local authority services to private sector competition. The challenge facing those in local government who wish to protect in-house services is how to adjust to a new commercial contracting culture without losing the values of public service. The Audit Commission argues that such a culture requires a hard split between the Council as a client, who sets service standards and ensures value for money and its contractor side that concerns itself with performing to standard and price. This article looks at both the legal and operational impetus for such a client-contractor split, from a DSO (Direct Service Organisation) perspective, and examines the strategic issues raised for local authority reorganisation.

The article considers the specifics of the agenda of public diplomacy of the European Union, and it is in this dimension that the emphasis is on building a coordinated policy. The documents of both the internal and external dimensions of the Commission, the Parliament, as well as the European External Action Service were also analyzed, namely, Plan D, The Global strategy for the foreign and security policy of the European Union, White Paper, Annual Activity Reports. It was emphasized that the actions carried out in the field of public diplomacy during 2018 were aimed at promoting joint responses to problems, raising awareness-raising measures, as well as building new strategies for the regions. At the same time, strategic communications remained a priority for the EEAS. It is concluded that EU public diplomacy, in line with the Union’s Global Strategy, should aim to improve strategic communications, investment and integration in various fields in order to better integrate foreign policy with citizens and better communicate it to partners. However, today the European Union also faces certain risks, such as changes in the priorities of member states, the economic crisis, the difficulty of assessing the effectiveness of public diplomacy, as well as low interest in new European Union initiatives.

Introduction. Administrative offenses are the most common of all types of offenses committed on the territory of Ukraine every year. Together, they pose a significant threat to the state and society. Effective in combating this is the application of administrative responsibility, the final result of which is the imposition of administrative fines. Among them, public works occupy a special place, which is one of the relatively new types of administrative fines. The purpose of the paper is to define the concepts, signs, classification and conditions of application of public works as a type of administrative penalty, its main functions and goals. Results. The paper provides a scientific analysis of public works as a type of administrative fines. The concept is explained, the main features and features of this type of sanction are clarified. The classification of socially useful works is given depending on the sphere of social life. The reasons for imposing a penalty in the form of community service on the offender have been clarified. A comparative analysis of public works with other types of enforcement is carried out. The main purpose of the application of public works is defined. Conclusion. The most expedient is the definition of community service as one of the types of administrative sanction applied to the guilty person by court decision and aimed at exercising an educational influence, consisting in the obligation to perform unpaid socially useful work that does not affect the financial condition of the offender. Administrative fines in the form of community service are imposed with the aim of achieving the following goals: to exert labor and educational influence on the violator; to prevent the commission of new offenses by the same person; due to general prevention, deter other members of society from illegal acts; to give a person the opportunity to acquire skills and knowledge in a new field of activity that is socially useful; to form the idea of justice, mutual respect and legal awareness in society.

AbstrakIndonesia 's Regional Representatives Board is planning to submit a Bill onenvironmental services. The Bill proposes the establishment of a newinstitution in managing environmental service fund, which is collectedthrough a user-charge system. This new institution is expected to be anindependent Commission of Environmental Funds Management, of whichcommissioners are responsible only to the President. The author finds thatthe spirit of the Bill has nothing to do with the needs to implement economicinstruments in terms of user charge. Instead, the Bill stems from the needs toprivatize public goods such as environmental services. The spirit can be seenin the forms of reference to Hardin's "the Tragedy of the Commons ", inwhich public goods are considered a form of inefficiency in the allocation ofresources that will eventually lead to the overexploitation of the goods. Inaddition, the spirit of privatization can also be seen in the Bill's proposal tohand over the tasks of the Commission, which include planning, execution,and monitoring, to private entities. The author argues that, with such spiritof privatization in the management of natural resources, the Bill is actuallyinconstitutional, and hence, should be rejected.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The formation of a new coalition government in New Zealand in the wake of the 2017 election ended three terms of National-led governments and raised the prospect of a significant shift in media policy. National had insisted that in the digital media ecology, the funding of public broadcasting institutions was no longer a priority and that platform-neutral contestable funding of local content would ensure the quality and diversity of content. This saw the demise of the TVNZ Charter and its two commercial-free channels (TVNZ 6 and 7), while both Radio New Zealand (RNZ) and the local content funding agency, NZ On Air, had their funding frozen. The 2017 election of the Labour-NZ First-Green government came with the promise of an additional investment of NZ$38m in public media, the expansion of RNZ’s remit to include a commercial-free television channel, and the establishment of an independent commission to assess funding needs for public media. However, the media ecology Labour now faces entails new policy complexities. Deregulation, financialization and convergence have not only intensified commercial pressures on the media, they have led to important shifts in the ways audiences discover and engage with media content. In turn, this complicates the traditional models of state intervention intended to deliver public service outcomes. Adopting a critical institutionalist framework this article will highlight key shifts in media policy trajectory since 1999 and highlight some key differences between the public broadcasting initiatives of 1999–2008 and the approach thus far of the incoming government. The article analyses how competing intra-party and inter-ministerial priorities have circumscribed the media policy options available and thereby highlight the way political–economic interests in the media ecology manifest in public policy.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Governments increasingly use novel forms of public procurement to stimulate innovation in public service delivery. A notable example is pre-commercial procurement. Launched by the European Commission a decade ago, pre-commercial procurement encourages research and development of new solutions for the public sector. However, limited theoretical and empirical studies have made it difficult to assess and improve use of the model to foster public innovation. Based on two pre-commercial procurement projects in Denmark, the article aims to complete the first systematic and theory-based evaluation of national experiences. The evaluation shows that sufficient resources, participant and management commitment, and focused management of the collaborative process contributed to successful development and testing of a new solution in one of the projects. Meanwhile, technical obstacles in developing a prototype resulted in termination of the other project. In this case, the pre-commercial procurement model cannot accommodate significant changes to the agreed solution during the innovation process.

Two of the measures address challenges facing the EU internal aviation market (Interpretative Guidelines on Regulation (EC) 1008/2008 – Public Service Obligations (PSO), COM (2017) 3712 final; Commission Staff Working Document on practices favouring Air Traffic Management Service Continuity, SWD (2017) 207 final). Two further measures address issues related to international aviation (Interpretative Guidelines on Regulation (EC) 1008/2008 – Rules on Ownership and Control of EU air carrier; Proposal for a Regulation on safeguarding competition in air transport, repealing Regulation (EC) No 868/2004, SWD (2017) 182 final, SWD (2017) 183 final). Of the four measures, only one is a legislative proposal, the remaining three are of a non-binding legal nature. The Commission proposes to adopt a new Regulation on trade protection for EU aviation which would replace Regulation 868/2004. The legislative process required before final adoption of the Commission’s proposal has not yet commenced; ultimately the final outcome of the process could differ significantly from the original proposal under review in this article. The author therefore addresses the question of whether, if adopted as suggested in its current wording, the new Regulation 868 would deliver on the intended improvements of the former legislation, become practicable and have strategic impact. The author concludes that the legislative proposal on trade protection is indeed a significant step towards helping the EU effectively address international distortions to competition in the aviation sector. Specific issues would need to be clarified, but the political debate could reveal that the thrust of the proposal would not be acceptable to several stakeholders. Given that ongoing market deployments have eroded the relevance of several regulatory provisions, the author questions whether the Commission’s approach to present interpretative guidelines to current provisions of Regulation 1008/2008 are sufficient to deliver meaningful progress in implementing the EU Aviation Strategy. The author finally evaluates the measures which the Commission proposes to contain the damaging economic effect of labour action in the field of air traffic management.

1. It is not too late, even now, to welcome the appointment of the statutory commission of inquiry, headed by former President of the Supreme Court Moshe Landau, to examine the methods employed by the General Security Service (GSS) in investigating “hostile terrorist activity” (HTA). The Landau Commission Report treats a broad spectrum of subjects, and the ordinary reader, such as myself, must bear in mind that he encounters only the first part of the Report, while there is also a second, confidential part which doubtless comprises discussions, conclusions and recommendations that cast additional light upon the first part and make for its fuller understanding.Even Part One of the Report, with its references to Part Two, constitutes in and of itself a major contribution to the effort to crystallize clear legal models of conduct for the special governmental organs involved in the sensitive area of the investigation of HTA cases. Raising the subject on the public agenda, the revelation of the facts involved, and examination of the attendant problems by a commission of such standing constitute an important step toward finding appropriate solutions. Although the Commission's approach is open to dispute on some points, dispute precedes all progress, at least the dispute between the new course and its predecessor.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The 1989 Fitzgerald Report into police and governmental corruption in Queensland has been a model for public sector reform in Australia. It is especially timely to consider the impact of those reforms in light of the current overhaul of the largest police agency in Australia, the New South Wales Police Service, and of continuing problems with public sector probity in other states. Queensland made significant advances in improving electoral and administrative processes, and creating external independent oversight of the police. Nonetheless, unforeseen gaps in the Fitzgerald agenda allowed reactionary forces to dilute the reform process. Three primary areas remain ‘unreconstructed’. Reform has not been firmly established from the top down, beginning with progressing the system of representative democracy and opening up cabinet. Additionally, the Police Service appears to have successfully resisted the prescribed re-orientation away from law enforcement to community policing. Detection and control of misconduct also remain weak. A more interventionist Criminal Justice Commission is needed, with more proactive strategies for developing compliance with ethical standards.

Purpose: In rural settings scare public health resources potentially limits the opportunities for nursing students living in these areas to participate in traditional one to one precepted experiences with public health agencies. To meet the revised Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education Standards related to direct clinical practice, creative strategies are needed for online degree seeking RN-BSN students who live in rural areas. This article explores an alternative learning experience by partnering students with a nonprofit healthcare institute to work on state health initiatives in the geographic region where the students reside.
Process: In the absence of adequate opportunities for one to one precepted clinical experiences, student living in rural areas completing an online RN-BS program were partnered with a non-profit health organization. The students participate in an experiential learning experience to fulfill clinical hours in a public health setting as required by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education. In this case a cohort of students worked with a nonprofit healthcare institute on New York State’s T-21 campaign to further advance their knowledge on health initiatives driven by state health reform policy and actively participate community-based education.
Conclusion: With a growing focus on population-based care and caring for vulnerable populations, particularly in rural areas, seeking clinical activities through partnerships with non-profit healthcare institute to improve health outcomes at the community level offers an alternative approach to engaging online degree seeking RN-BSN students in experiential clinical learning in communities with limited public health agency placements.

The purpose of this article is to describe the collaborative components of a school and community-based recreation therapy (RT) program designed to support the educational, developmental, and transitional needs of students with disabilities in the K-12 public school system in New Hampshire. The program, Therapeutic Recreation Empowering Kids (TREK), is one of three core service areas of the University of New Hampshire's Northeast Passage, community-based adaptive sport and RT organization. This article focuses on TREK's transition services, which align with many of the recommended best practices in transition. TREK services are delivered in school and community settings by state licensed Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialists to students with disabilities, in accordance with their individualized education plans. Beginning as early as elementary school, through the use of purposeful RT interventions, community integration, and meaningful inclusion, the TREK therapist facilitates valued transition outcomes. In furtherance of these outcomes, the TREK therapist functions as a critical broker in establishing and maintaining mutually beneficial cross-system collaborative partnerships. The purpose of these partnerships is explored, demonstrating how the TREK program facilitates recreation therapists' ability to successfully partner with K-12 public school personnel, community providers and the families of students, all of which potentiate synergistic partnerships toward accomplishing mutual transition goals. A case example is provided to illustrate ways in which the program impacts those involved and encourages continued collaboration.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This paper reviews the advocacy role of Aboriginal community controlled health services (ACCHSs) in the development of Aboriginal health policy over the past 30 years, with a specific focus on the recent changes in Commonwealth funding and administrative responsibility - the transfer of Aboriginal health service funding from the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC) to the Office of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health Services (OATSIHS) within the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing (DoHA), and the development of policies aimed at Aboriginal health services accessing mainstream (Medical Benefits Scheme [MBS]) funds. The outcomes of this policy change include a significant increase in funding to Aboriginal primary health care (PHC), the inclusion of ACCHSs in collaborative strategic relationships, and the development of new arrangements involving regional planning and access to per capita funds based on MBS equivalents. However, the community sector remains significantly disadvantaged in participating in this collaborative effort, and imposed bureaucratic processes have resulted in serious delays in releasing funds for actual services in communities. Government agencies need to take greater heed of community advocacy, and provide appropriate resourcing to enable community organisations to better direct government effort, especially at the implementation phase. These remain major concerns and should be considered by non-health sectors in the development of new funding and program development mechanisms in the wake of the abolition of ATSIC.

AimsTo provide an overview of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists’ (RANZCP) work to improve support for those with an intellectual or developmental disability.MethodsPeople with intellectual disability experience significantly higher rates of physical and mental health conditions in comparison to the general population. However, there can be multiple barriers to effective health care including, but not limited to, stigma and discrimination, the training of health professionals and a failure to consider the specific needs of people with intellectual disability in health and disability policy leading to deficits in funding to support generic services or develop specialist service models.In Australia, a Disability Royal Commission was established in 2019 in response to community concern about reports of violence against, and the neglect, abuse and exploitation of, people with disability. The RANZCP has provided information to the Royal Commission and appeared at a public hearing focused on the education and training of health professionals in relation to people with cognitive disability. In 2022, the RANZCP published new position statements on autism and intellectual disability to address the unmet needs faced by people with autism and intellectual disability and provide a foundation for future College advocacy for improving resourcing and mental health support for these groups.ResultsThe new RANZCP position statements on autism and intellectual disability make a number of systemic recommendations to address the mental health needs of autistic people and intellectual disability including: •providing adequate funding to ensure appropriate policy implementation•educating and training health providers in the mental health needs of autistic people and people with intellectual disability•including the voices of autistic people to support a more inclusive approach to policy development and service design•collecting data on the needs of people with intellectual disability who are living with mental health conditions to support better service planning and better health outcomes.•In response to recommendations from the Disability Royal Commission, the RANZCP is also revising its training syllabus to include additional requirements for cognitive disability and has reviewed its CPD program to determine whether CPD for the provision of health care to people with intellectual disability should be enhanced.ConclusionThe RANZCP is committed to addressing the unmet mental health needs and significant challenges of people with autism and intellectual disability and advocating for improving resourcing and mental health support for these groups.

Poverty is the theme uniting the contributions to this issue’s Research Round-up. We begin with two innovations in this field supported by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation. The first is a new website on poverty statistics established by the New Policy Institute. The second is the Commission on Poverty, Participation and Power which involved six people with direct experience of poverty alongside six people in public life (this is reported on, in more detail, in ‘Report Back’). These two innovations are very interesting but the third contribution in this issue reports on a very practical and successful approach to reducing poverty. This approach involved a community nurse-led Attendance Allowance screening service which led to significantly increased incomes for many people who took part in the service. The government’s anti-poverty strategy focuses on getting people into paid work. It is also now beginning to consider how people might be helped to remain in paid work and this is the theme of the four th contribution in this issue. The debate around paid work as a route out of poverty is so directly relevant to pensioners and the final piece in this issue looks at how take-up of the Social Fund might be increased in order to reduce pensioner poverty.

Digital Single Market is the new world in the EU and it is perceived as primary public interest because it was one of the ways the EU found to become more financially attractive and better suited to innovation. To accomplish that, several legal solutions appear to be unsuitable for the present time EU is living in. Concerning electronic communications, its legal and regulatory framework needed to be recasted and a new Electronic Communications Code proposal was made by the European Commission. Among many innovative solutions, it aims at redefining EU universal service, to update it to connectivity solutions of our time, and at revising the Body of European Regulators for Electronic Communications’ role, granting it further competences on crossborder dispute resolution and articulation between European institutions and national regulatory authorities. These dimensions rethink both social and institutional regulatory framework and this text wants to understand what their strengths and weaknesses are.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In Germany general hepatitis B (HB) vaccination for newborns and adolescents was introduced in all federal states following the recommendation of the STIKO (Permanent Vaccination Commission) of 1995. In 1998 serological studies of the German National Health Survey showed that at least 9.8% in the age group of 18 to 19 years had been vaccinated against HBV infection. By 1996 the vaccine doses sold for children rose dramatically and started to reach a plateau of approximately five million per year in 1997. Data from the kassenärztliche Vereinigung of the Oberpfalz region in Bavaria also indicate that the new policy started to be implemented in 1996. At school entry, however, in 1997 only 10% of the children in seven West German states showed serological evidence of HB vaccination coverage. According to observations of virologists, paediatricians and public health experts the current acceptance of the HB vaccination recommendations is 80%–90% in children below the age of six years but only 30% to 40% in adolescents. To achieve high HB vaccination coverage rates in Germany more rapidly a modern surveillance system providing detailed data about vaccination coverage in the different age and population groups is needed. Based on those data additional targeted vaccination strategies for those that can only be contacted by the traditional health care system, such as teenagers and vulnerable groups, should be developed, involving the public health service, local communities and other agencies.

Social rental housing is one of the possible instruments which are applied to ensure the satisfaction of housing needs. However, public funds which are transferred to entities that operate within this area should be usually classified as State aid. The analysis presented in this paper concerns the following question: is it possible to consider the operation of a social rental housing program as services of general economic interest. This question seems to be a topical issue because of a new legislative initiative aiming at establishing a governmental housing program that was implemented by the Act of 10 September 2015 which amended the Act on certain forms of supporting housing construction. The aforementioned program stipulates the legal frames for refundable and preferential financing that may be granted to specific entities in order to realise investments in social rental housing. The governmental housing program complements earlier local housing policies in force. What is significant is that the Polish legislator decided to qualify support granted as services of general economic interest, as referred to in Commission Decision 2012/21/UE of 20 December 2011 on the Application of Article 106(2) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union to State aid in the form of public service compensation granted to certain undertakings entrusted with the operation of services of general economic interest. Applying Commission Decision 2012/21/UE to this situation raises some doubts as to the lack of clarity of a term “social housing”. Due to a certain controversy over the abovementioned issue, the authors have attempted to examine whether the application of preferential provisions of Commission Decision 2012/21/UE to the social housing program is in accordance with the relevant provisions of EU competition rules.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Creating a stable and sustainable health workforce in regional, rural and remote Australia has long been a challenge to health workforce planners, policy makers and researchers alike. Traditional health workforce planning is often reactive and assumes continuation of current patterns of healthcare utilisation. This demonstration project in Far North Queensland exemplifies how participatory regional health workforce planning processes can accurately model current and projected local workforce requirements. The recent establishment of Primary Health Networks (PHNs) with the intent to commission health services tailored to individual healthcare needs underlines the relevance of such an approach. This study used action research methodology informed by World Health Organization (WHO) systems thinking. Four cyclical stages of health workforce planning were followed: needs assessment; health service model redesign; skills-set assessment and workforce redesign; and development of a workforce and training plan. This study demonstrated that needs-based loco-regional health workforce planning can be achieved successfully through participatory processes with stakeholders. Stronger health systems and workforce training solutions were delivered by facilitating linkages and planning processes based on community need involving healthcare professionals across all disciplines and sectors. By focusing upon extending competencies and skills sets, local health professionals form a stable and sustainable local workforce. Concrete examples of initiatives generated from this process include developing a chronic disease inter-professional teaching clinic in a rural town and renal dialysis being delivered locally to an Aboriginal community. The growing trend of policy makers decentralising health funding, planning and accountability and rising health system costs increase the future utility of this approach. This type of planning can also assist the new PHNs to commission health services that meet the needs of the population and contribute to service and system improvement and innovation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Times of crisis have always required particular approaches to human resource management in all governing bodies, especially in the «managerial» category. Nowadays, it is crucial to understand whether a particular person can cope with new, more complicated tasks, possesses the competencies needed at the moment, and knows how to adapt to the demands of the times. The application of traditional methods to assess managerial personnel is becoming less relevant, while tests in situations as close to realities and potential challenges as possible are in demand. Personnel management technologies allowing to obtain reliable information were developed, tested, and successfully used in both foreign and Russian business structures. The Department of Civil Service and Personnel Management of the Lipetsk region administration has adapted some of the HR technologies from the business sphere to the specifics of the civil service. For example, the authorities combined the annual personnel commission, the institute of successors, and the assessment center evaluation into a single comprehensive evaluation system. The article describes the procedure for implementing a comprehensive evaluation, presents its advantages, and provides data on the practical results of its systematic use in human resource management in the region. The proposed methodology can be helpful to public authorities in assessing personnel in the civil service.

The purpose of the article is to analyze the relationship of moral principles of organization and implementation of state power with the realization of democracy. The moral and legal aspect of the newest stage of the constitutional democratic development of Ukrainian statehood, in particular, in the context of European integration of Ukraine, is analyzed. The crucial role of the constitutional and legal provision of morality in the activity of the state for the constitutional development of Ukraine is substantiated. The relationship between the principle of integrity of the public service and the constitutional foundations of the people's power is determined. The importance of constitutional and legal consolidation of the requirements of public integrity for the establishment in Ukraine and its development as a rule of law has been proven.

Since former Chancellor George Osborne described reducing public spending as ‘the great national challenge of our generation’ (Her Majesty’s Treasury, 2010: 12) the UK Government have demonstrated a profound interest in Payment by Results (PbR) as a mechanism to improve service quality, value for money and innovation (Audit Commission, 2012). Although PbR is not a new initiative, it has been rebranded and sold as a vehicle that can steer ongoing strategies for reform, particularly in the field of criminal justice and drug/alcohol treatment (Her Majesty’s Government, 2010; Ministry of Justice 2013). Despite such assertions, the initiative has become synonymous with budget cuts (Community Links, 2015), the privatisation of public services (Policy Exchange, 2013) and controversy. Drawing upon the findings of a focus group with staff who work in a Therapeutic Community, this article highlights the lived experience of practitioners as PbR takes hold of the alcohol and drug treatment sector. The findings suggest that outcome-orientated incentives, such as PbR, hold the potential to transform welfare-orientated sectors into a financial, market-focused milieu.

Research aims: This study aims to critically analyze the account administration of confiscated funds from criminal cases at the Public Prosecution Service of the Republic of Indonesia using three-dimensional Isomorphism of DiMaggio Powel’s New Institutional Theory. Design/Methodology/Approach: We employ qualitative approach using three-dimensional Isomorphism of DiMaggio Powel’s New Institutional Theory; coercive pressure, mimetic pressure dan normative pressure. We interviewed 21 informants including officials from Special Crimes and General Crimes Section who are responsible for the account administration of confiscated funds. Also, with auditors from the Supreme Audit Institutions who audited the Public Prosecution Service of the Republic of Indonesia, and the Corruption Eradication Commission officials to get new views on how the conduct the account administration of confiscated funds.Research findings: The results indicate that there is coercive pressure in making regulations for account administration of confiscated funds in the form of repeated findings from the Supreme Audit Institutions and the Minister of Finance Regulation of 182/PMK.05/2017. Mimetic pressure is also indicated with the requirement to imitate succeeded similar organizations. The General Attorney's Office has to clarify organizational structure for the Evidence and Confiscation Management Section at the District Attorney's level and establish competency standards for all officials. This means less professionalism due to the absence of procedure supported by information system, which becomes normative pressure.Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study contributes to the literature on exploring public sector phenomena in the perspective of three-dimensional Isomorphism of New Institutional Theory; as well as explaining changes in policy and organization structure for the account administration of confiscated funds from criminal cases.Practitioner/Policy implication: This study provides input to reform the account administration of confiscated funds from criminal cases to make it more accountable on its policies and organization structure.Research limitation/Implication: This study only explains and evaluates the weaknesses of account administration of confiscated funds. There is the need of aspects reconstruction based on three-dimensional Isomorphism of DiMaggio Powel’s New Institutional Theory in order to be accountable on its policies and organization structure.

Artikkelissa tarkastellaan, millaisia tavoitteita kunnalliset tilaajat asettavat asumispalveluille. Millaisia tilaamisen viitekehyksiä on tunnistettavissa asumispalvelujen tilaajien teemahaastattelujen perusteella?
Analyysin tuloksena tunnistetaan kolme kehystä: julkishallinnollinen vahvan ohjauksen, tuotteistukseen ohjaava ja markkinaehtoinen vahvan ohjauksen kehys. Kehyksiä yhdistää se, ettei hankintaosaamiseen sisälly riittävää ymmärrystä tilattavista palveluista ja tuotteista. Tilaajien tavoitteiden saavuttaminen edellyttäisi asiantuntemuksen uutta jäsentämistä. Palvelun käyttäjien itsenäisen asumisen ja elämän sekä henkilöstön asumisen tuen asiantuntemusta tarvitaan palvelujen tilaamisessa ja näin ollen myös sosiaali- ja terveydenhuollon uudistuksessa – esimerkiksi artikkelissa luonnostellun neljännen, yhteistoiminnallisen kehyksen mukaisesti.
Kilpailutus ei ole toimiva väline asumispalvelujen tilaamisessa. Sen merkitystä palvelujen laadun, kustannustehokkuuden ja tuloksellisuuden saavuttamisessa on yliarvioitu. Kilpailutus ei ole suoraan vaikuttanut palvelujen laadun eikä palvelujen käyttäjien aseman kohentumiseen, mihin yhteistoiminnallinen kehys antaa uusia mahdollisuuksia. Avainasemassa on tilaajien aloitteellisuus. Julkisen ohjauksen tehtävänä on velvoittaa kaikkia asianosaisryhmiä tyydyttävään yhteistoimintaan.
Abstract
Frameworks of Commissioning Residential Facilities for Mental Health and Drug Service Users. In Search of a Collaborative Framework
This article analyzes the goals that commissioners of residential facilities for mental health and drug service users try to achieve. Are there specific frameworks of commissioning which can be recognized from analysis of interviews with commissioners? The research material used in this analysis is based on field work in three different parts of Finland.
The article recognizes three frameworks of public steering: a strong traditional commissioning; a new model for commodification of services and a strong market based commissioning. The critical common denominator of these frameworks is that the commissioners do not have adequate understanding of the services and the contexts of service provision which they are obliged to commission and purchase. To achieve the goals set by the commissioners, a new model of collaborative framework is duly required – this framework puts stronger emphasis on the expertises of users and ground floor staff. The commissioners play a key role in forming new alliances between private and other service providers, the ground floor staff, the service users and other stakeholders.
Keywords: commissioning, housing services for mental health and drug service users, collaborative framework
