answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/11/2015 answer text <p>This Government is fully committed to delivering its manifesto. This is why we have introduced the Single Departmental Plans as a new framework for performance tracking. Single departmental plans will replace departmental Business Plans and are currently being finalised by departments. Single Departmental Plans will set out each department’s priority objectives, and the key programmes and policies that will deliver these. They will be published on gov.uk, allowing the public to track progress against a number of performance indicators. Single Departmental Plans are owned by departments and have been designed by Cabinet Office and HM Treasury working in partnership. Officials have been actively engaging with departments to ensure that the plans provide a complete picture of the measures this Government is taking to deliver its commitments.</p> answering member constituency West Dorset answering member printed Mr Oliver Letwin question first answered 16/11/2015 11:12:34 answering member 247 label Biography information for Sir Oliver Letwin
