§ Mr. Russell BrownTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what progress has been made on the recommendation in the Performance and Innovation Unit report "Wiring it Up" to develop a strategy for performance information. [156221]
§ Mr. Andrew SmithA strategy for performance information "Improving Performance Information"—setting out the initiatives the Government have put in place to improve performance information—was published today.
As part of the strategy a guide to performance information: "Choosing the right FABRIC: a Framework for Performance Information" has also been published.
This document is published jointly by the Treasury, the Cabinet Office, the National Audit Office, the Audit Commission, and the Office for National Statistics and contains principles behind performance information.
I am placing a copy of both documents in the Libraries of both Houses. The documents can also be found on the Treasury website at www.hm-treasury.gsi.gov.uk/ perform_info.
