Irrespective of the Welsh Government’s willingness to legislate for regional collaboration the Western. Bay partners have recognised that there are advantages in developing an Integrated Service. By far the most compelling advantage will be the ability to flex resource to address any and all of the statutory requirements noted above in a timely manner. In addition the ability to utilise a pooled resource to undertake multiple tasks simultaneously will inevitably impact on reducing any unnecessary delay in the process and improve performance in each of the statutory areas. More critically this will also impact positively on the child’s journey, shortening the time spent in temporary placements. Potential adopters will also experience a more robust and timely process that will keep them engaged and committed to the Western Bay Adoption Service, therefore reducing the possibility of losing them to a competing agency. Consideration will need to be given to the needs of the service user as to which services should be delivered on a regional and local basis. This specification is, therefore founded on the premise that current performance cannot afford to slip and must improve where possible.
