The documents provide an assessment of some of the key ways in which the Third Sector can influence public sector procurement processes and deliver social and economic regeneration. The Bulletin will conclude by assessing some of the issues that local authority and other statutory bodies need to consider when working with the third sector to deliver regeneration activity and service delivery.
