Clackmannanshire Consultation Database

This questionnaire asked about attitudes to community groups to help inform our review of community council governance.

You gave us a range of views and attitudes, showing that respondents are interested in and see the value of collective community activity, despite the work and, sometimes, the disappointment involved.

We have summarised the results and key comments, and added our own commentary where relevant to community councils and combined them into one report which you can download from this site under 'Results'.

What are your views on the Community Justice Improvement Plan for Clackmannanshire?

• More clarity needed in links with education
• Insufficient evidence of measuring improvement
• Emphasise that the strategy will concurrently reduce health inequalities that persist amongst offenders

• Simplified the detail in order to provide more flexibility
• Commit to working Community Justice Scotland to measure outcomes and use the Community Justice Outcome Improvement Framework
• Strenghten the narrative of healthcare inequalities

We asked you to tell us about your voting experience whether at the polling station or using our postal vote service.

The majority of respondents were happy with their experience. 

92% felt that the building used was suitable as a polling place and 90% rated the customer service provided by the polling staff as good or very good. 

Those respondents that are postal voters like the convenience and find it easy to do.

Where specific issues with a building were highlighted, we have noted this and will use this feedback when we have the next formal review of polling places in 2018/19. 

Where we received comments about concerns that the layout of polling stations were not affording enough privacy for voters to cast their vote, we shall ensure that this area is reinforced at our poll staff training sessions.
