Purpose Ministerial Foreword Shared Future For the first time, the Act gives a legally-binding common purpose – the well-being goals - for national and local government and for other specified public bodies, and details the principle by which the public sector should work together to deliver the long-term well-being of Wales. … The Act emphasises the role that public bodies play in their communities and how, through leadership and improved capability they can generate benefits for both current and future generations. This will mean collective action as well as individual responsibility
Related Ministerial activities “The recent passing of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act (2015) gives us a new opportunity to advance the principles of public procurement in Wales, building on the good work since 2012. Putting this into practice in the public service means we must continue to look toward our future generations and deliver more sustainable outcomes from our procurements so that our expenditure can help achieve the seven well-being goals for Wales set out in the Act.”
