The Northern Ireland Executive today launched a consultation on the new draft Programme for Government (PfG) Outcomes Framework.

The Programme for Government focuses on achieving wellbeing across our society, and the draft Framework sets out nine ambitious Outcomes aimed at making a real and positive difference to people’s lives.The Executive is calling on all citizens to have their say to help build a better society for all.

First Minister, Arlene Foster said: “The Executive is determined to deliver for all the people of Northern Ireland.

“Each of the nine draft outcomes in the Framework is focussed on our shared vision of a better future for everyone. We want to develop a strong economy which benefits everyone and build a society in which we value and take care of people of all ages. We want this to be a place where we look after our environment and where we encourage and support everyone to reach their potential. 

“This draft Framework is the first step towards putting a Programme in place that will help us tackle, head on, the wide range of issues we all face.

“These have been unprecedented times. Covid–19 has turned life, as we knew it, on its head. As an Executive, we are committed to steering Northern Ireland through these challenges and towards building a better future for our society.

“We want to hear your views on the draft Outcomes as well as the key priorities we have identified which will help turn them into reality.”
