Public Consultation
The development of a Sustainable Community Strategy and Local Area Agreement was driven by the Devon Strategic Partnership (DSP) Delivery Board and all partners were involved in the process.
Public and partner involvement and consultation are fundamental to the success of Sustainable Community Strategy (SCS) and the Local Area Agreement (LAA). This page provides more detail regarding involvement and consultation.
The Devon Strategic Partnership (DSP) commissioned a number of pieces of consultation to find out what local people consider to be the key issues for Devon. These various consultations included over 3,500 people and included:
-
Your Devon Your Views – a postal survey sent to 6,000 households
-
Focus group and face to face interviews to find out what the key issues are for local people. This work also asked people to contribute towards the DSP’s Vision for Devon
-
a Citizens’ Panel and postal survey asking local people to prioritise those issues they think the DSP should focus on in the near future.
-
a public and partner consultation on the theme analysis within the evidence base
