The question
To ask the Scottish Government when it will introduce a reformed National Performance Framework, in light of it pausing and abandoning its previously proposed national outcomes in 2025 after a full statutory review.
The answer
Following the statutory review, Ministers committed the Scottish Government to a period of reform of the National Performance Framework (NPF). During this period, no changes were made to the current national outcomes and indicators. These remain in operation as is the duty, under the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015, on public bodies to have regard to them.We are making positive progress on reform of the NPF. The intention is to deliver a reformed NPF which will be Scotland’s wellbeing framework, setting the vision for the kind of Scotland we would all like to see, and providing strategic direction for better public services.Subject to final decisions by Ministers, we expect to launch the reformed NPF and national outcomes soon. We will provide an update to Parliament in due course.
