The current role of the National Centre for Partnership, as described in Partnership 2000, is the promotion of the partnership approach in both the public and private sectors through the organisation and facilitation of seminars, workshops and training programmes. The Programme for Prosperity and Fairness, recognising the progress which has been made, proposes a new approach signalled by a new title and role for the National Centre for Partnership and Performance. It is envisaged that the centre will work with IBEC and ICTU in supporting the deepening of partnership including through deliberation, consensus building and dissemination, monitoring, research and analysis and training and facilitation.
