21. Mr. Connarty

To ask the Deputy Prime Minister and First Secretary of State what progress is being made with the implementation of the joined-up Government project. [55954]

Mr. Leslie

Joined-up working is key to meeting the Government's delivery agenda. We have introduced a number of initiatives. These include the dissemination of cross-Government policy tools; of good practice across the public sector; the co-ordination of area based initiatives in Government offices; and the creation of cross-cutting public service agreements.
