Plans of the Welsh Ministers to consult on draft statutory guidance for the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015.
The Act provides a legally binding common purpose and way of working to drive forward the activities of public bodies across and will shape their future planning and corporate arrangements. It also aims to ensure public bodies recognise the multiple benefits they make to all the well-being goals as well as how they work collectively with each other. Our intention is that the draft guidance provides public bodies with the tools to meet the ambitions of the Act.
Earlier this year the Welsh Government ran an engagement exercise, based on a discussion document, for the statutory guidance with interested stakeholders. The feedback received provided valuable evidence to inform the current draft and we are looking for further contributions against these document.
The consultation runs between 7 September and 16 November 2015. Four consultation events will be run during October, details of which are on the website below. I encourage you or a representative from your organisation to attend these events. Materials will also be made available during the consultation to help you have the conversations in your organisation on how public bodies can get the best out of the new legislation, in advance of the duty coming into force in April 2016.
