However, all have been clear on their mission to test whether our current configuration and approaches will continue to be fit for purpose to support and enable Scotland's people, communities, businesses and third/voluntary sector organisations to improve outcomes nationally and locally Clusters have balanced the need to work more efficiently while beginning to explore Governments strong emphasis on how we transform services and the organisations that deliver them, in the medium/long term. Clusters will continue to form around key themes or challenges to test whether our current configuration and approaches continue to be fit for purpose to support and enable Scotland's people, communities, businesses and third/voluntary sector organisations to improve outcomes nationally and locally. The key areas for exploration for each cluster have been framed by reform principles: people, place, performance, prevention, partnership. Scottish Government will work with public bodies to develop these areas however, public bodies are free to also create their own approach to clustering which, ideally should take a collaborative approach with local government, other public authorities and the third/voluntary sector.
