In line with the Government\u2019s Green Book, Defra policy is appraised and developed using an assessment of costs and benefits. This appraisal is based on improving well-being. Policy makers and analysts use a range of data sources in making this assessment, which can include ONS estimates of personal well-being.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Defra recognises that the quality of the environment underpins our well-being and prosperity. During the last 12 months we have introduced a range of actions to improve well-being, including those set out in the 25 Year Environment Plan and the Clean Air Strategy.<\/p>

The Department uses a range of surveys and data on well-being when formulating and evaluating its policies. The Office for National Statistics personal well-being questions are also included as measures for the wider Measuring National Well-being programme, which began in November 2010.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department has introduced several policies that have a positive impact on national well-being. This includes the Industrial Strategy White Paper, published in November 2017, which aims to boost productivity by backing businesses to create good jobs and increase the earning power of people throughout the UK.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Industrial Strategy\u2019s Grand Challenge Missions bring government, businesses and organisations across the country together to make a real difference to people\u2019s lives. The Ageing Society Mission is to ensure that people can enjoy at least 5 extra healthy, independent years of life by 2035, while narrowing the gap between the experience of the richest and poorest; and the Clean Growth Mission is to at least halve the energy use of new buildings by 2030.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Good Work plan, announced in February 2018, set out how for the first time the government will be accountable for good quality work as well as the quantity of jobs, and that government recognises well-being as one of the five principles that underpin quality of work. In addition we have increased the National Living Wage to £7.83, whilst the UK has experienced the lowest unemployment rate since 1975.<\/p>

My Department works closely with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to develop policies that improve well-being.<\/p>
The ONS wellbeing estimates are incorporated into the DCMS Taking Part Survey. This annual survey is commissioned to provide an evidence source on participation in culture and sport and collects data on well being. The survey is currently used to measure and inform departmental indicators, inform the formulation of DCMS policy, and to understand the drivers of participation in cultural and sporting activities.<\/p>
Policy formulation also includes policy evaluation. ONS personal well-being data is used to evaluate and monitor the effectiveness of policy interventions. A recent example is the National Citizen Service. The reported personal well being of young people before and after their participation in the service has been evaluated. The results found statistically significant increases.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4115", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Margot James"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stourbridge"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Margot James"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-09-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-09-14T11:52:00.417Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "10"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-09-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport: Health"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, whether his Department uses Office for National Statistics estimates of personal well-being when formulating policy; and what policies his Department has introduced to improve national well-being in the last 12 months.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/534", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Ruane"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Vale of Clwyd"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Chris Ruane"} ], "uin" : "171304"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969124", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969124/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The estimates of personal wellbeing by the Office of National Statistics are an excellent source of data on a range of aspects of children and young people\u2019s lives and we endeavour to use the most relevant information to inform policy thinking wherever it is available.<\/p>
To improve the wellbeing of children, young people and adults, a number of recent policies have been introduced to make sure that all schools have access to mental health support. This includes 30 hours of free childcare for 3 and 4 year olds, the doubling of primary school\u2019s PE and sport premium to £320 million per year since September 2017, and the investment of up to £26 million in a breakfast club programme which will establish or improve breakfast clubs in over 1,700 schools and will be targeted at the most disadvantaged areas of the country.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4113", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stratford-on-Avon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Nadhim Zahawi"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-09-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-09-14T11:40:57.653Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-09-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Education: Health"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether his Department uses Office for National Statistics estimates of personal well-being when formulating policy; and what policies his Department has introduced to improve national well-being in the last 12 months.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/534", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Ruane"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Vale of Clwyd"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Chris Ruane"} ], "uin" : "171305"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969128", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969128/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Government has allocated more than £61bn in transport capital investment over the five years to 2020/21. This is record investment that ensures communities become better connected and journeys become easier and more reliable, in recognition of the vital role that transport plays in people\u2019s lives.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department takes forward a number of policies that help promote personal wellbeing, including the recently published Inclusive Transport Strategy which aims to make travel easier for disabled people, and the £1.2bn Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy that aims to make cycling and walking the natural choice for short journeys.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department is also supporting the Government\u2019s plan to help tackle loneliness as announced by the Prime Minister in January in response to the Jo Cox Commission. We have contributed £1m to the Building Connections Fund and sit on the cross-government group which will take responsibility for driving action on loneliness across all parts of government and keeping it firmly on the agenda.<\/p>
<\/p>

As such, it is not possible to identify all specific instances where the use of ONS estimates of personal wellbeing have been used in the last 12 months.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4460", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wealden"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Ms Nusrat Ghani"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-09-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-09-14T13:48:51.43Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-09-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Transport: Health"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department uses Office for National Statistics estimates of personal well-being when formulating policy; and what policies his Department has introduced to improve national well-being in the last 12 months.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/534", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Ruane"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Vale of Clwyd"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Chris Ruane"} ], "uin" : "171306"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969132", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Work and Pensions"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/969132/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The services provided by the Department make a positive difference to citizens\u2019 well-being. The Department does this by helping more people into work, providing a simplified benefits system that is easier to access for those who need it most, delivering support to disabled people and providing security in later life.<\/p>
The Department has used similar measures to the ONS personal well-being estimates, such as data from the Understanding Society survey which influenced the Improving Lives: Helping Workless Families policy paper. This paper published a number of indicators, including poor parental mental health, which measures the proportion of children living with at least one parent reporting symptoms of anxiety and/or depression. DWP has subsequently introduced the Reducing Parental Conflict Programme to address and measure parental conflict, as evidence shows poor relationships between parents can damage children\u2019s outcomes, including their well-being.<\/p>
