Detail of outcome

The government departments and the Partnership Team (a team of four secondees from the local authorities, civil society and high education sector) followed up with stakeholders on the results of the consultation.

A series of stakeholder consultation meetings were then arranged in autumn 2012 across the country.

Evidence gathered from these events and more detailed information gathering in the lead-up to them then informed the development of programme proposals, which will then be the subject of a formal consultation for the Partnership Agreement, in spring 2013.
