East Ayrshire Community Planning
Community Planning is about a range of partners in the public and voluntary sectors working together to better plan, resource and deliver quality services that meet the needs of people who live and work in East Ayrshire.
The Community Plan is recognised by all Partners as the sovereign strategic planning document for the delivery of public services in East Ayrshire over the 12 years from 2003 to 2015 and sets out the overall vision for the local area, as follows.
Single Outcome Agreement
East Ayrshire Community Planning Partnership Single Outcome Agreement (SOA), covering the three year period from 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2011, was signed off by the Scottish Government in July 2008. The SOA is based on the 15 key national outcomes agreed in the November 2007 Concordat linked to the Scottish Spending Review 2007 and a common framework of local priorities, and provides Community Planning Partners with an opportunity to jointly report on a focused range of service delivery performance measures.
The SOA has been reviewed and updated as planned and, following endorsement by all Community Planning Partners, was agreed by the Scottish Government in July 2009.

SOA Annual Performance Report 2008/09
East Ayrshire Community Planning Partnership’s first SOA Annual Performance Report was endorsed by the Community Planning Partnership Board for submission to the Scottish Government on 30 September 2009.
