Statement of Levelling Up Missions

Narrative for Well-being Mission

Details

The Statement of Missions, as required by the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act, sets out the government’s Levelling Up missions and the metrics against which they will be measured.

In the Statement, we have detailed the definitions and metrics we will use to assess the 2 exploratory missions, Well-being and Pride in Place. Since these missions were set out as exploratory in the Levelling Up white paper, we have also provided an accompanying narrative – setting out how we developed the definitions and metrics for the missions and the rationale behind some of the decisions we have taken during the exploratory phase. We have also published an analysis of geographical disparities across the UK.

As required by the Levelling Up and Regeneration Act, the Statement must also be accompanied by a document that sets out how the UK government have had regard to any role of the devolved legislatures and devolved administrations in connection with the levelling-up missions in the statement.
