Our contribution to The National Performance Framework

The focus of our Corporate Planning continues to be on how we will support, through the National Outcomes within the current National Performance Framework (NPF) and the annual Programme for Government (PfG).

The PfG is steered by the longer-term vision in the NPF, and its aim is to set out the actions required to deliver the outcomes. Within this the Scottish Government is focusing its efforts and resources on the four key priorities: growing the economy eradicating child poverty, , tackling the climate emergency, and ensuring high quality and sustainable public services.

Our National Transport Strategy contributes to nine of the National Outcomes within the NPF, as well as all 17 of the Key United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This information is mapped in the Strategy’s Monitoring and Evaluation document.

We currently provide analysis on an annual basis to inform one specific National Indicator on Journeys by Active Travel. This report on the proportion of short journeys less than two miles that are made by walking and the proportion of journeys under five miles made by cycling in Scotland.
