On a visit to Milford Haven recently with the Climate Change, Environment and Rural Affairs Committee, I was surprised to hear one senior officer of one of the public bodies in the meeting, saying that, at a senior level, surprise had been expressed that money was being paid to another organisation to carry out a function that was going to collectively benefit the community. How well do you think local authority and other public bodies are grasping the opportunities of public service boards as a new way of working and a new way of thinking about how we deliver the benefits for our communities?
