On 19 February, 17 Government Departments published their single departmental plans. All plans can now be accessed on departmental gov.uk pages, as well as on: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/single- departmental-plans-for-2015-to-2020.

The plans set out how Departments will deliver the Government’s programme for this Parliament. They include each Department’s priority objectives, the key programmes and policies that will deliver these, together with a number of performance indicators. They also set out the common efficiency measures that Departments will be undertaking in order to deliver the Government’s commitments in full within the resources available.

Single departmental plans are owned by Departments and have been designed by Cabinet Office and HM Treasury working in partnership.

Statistical information published in the plans will be updated as new data becomes available.
