The Scottish Government is gathering views to help inform the scope of any legislation for a proposed Wellbeing and Sustainable Development Bill.
The Bill aims to further improve decision making and the implementation of the National Performance Framework to ensure that all policy and delivery is focused on increasing the wellbeing of people living in Scotland, both now and in the future. This consultation also explores scope for further improving accountability and scrutiny of the National Outcomes including the case for a Future Generations Commissioner.
“The First Minister has set out our missions on equality, opportunity, and community, and described these as the driving ambition of the government as we build a Scotland which can withstand the difficult times through which we are all living. Each of these missions are connected and when delivered together they will make a real and positive difference to the lives of people across Scotland.”
Shona Robison MSP
