Cabinet Office written question – answered at on 6 February 2013.
The Office for National Statistics has made significant progress since 2010 on measuring national wellbeing and published the first Life in the UK report in November 2012. The published well-being statistics are experimental and are helping to build up the evidential foundations in order to inform future policy.
Progress is being made: the cross-government Social Impacts Task Force is sharing wellbeing research and practice across Whitehall, and a cross-Whitehall Wellbeing Steering Group has recently been established to consider policy uses. As an example, well-being measures have been incorporated into the evaluation of the National Citizen Service.
