The question
To ask the Scottish Government whether it will provide details of its approach and timeline for the development of the National Indicators that underpin the National Outcomes, and how it plans to consult with relevant sectors and organisations as part of this process.
The answer
The Scottish Government is in the process of finalising a streamlined set of National Indicators, drawing on international good practice such as the recent United Nations (UN) Expert Group on Beyond GDP report and which aligns with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The Chief Statistician will recommend a National Indicator set to ministers. We intend to launch the reformed NPF, including the National Indicators, later this year and will continue to keep Parliament informed of progress.
