Better Outcomes, Brighter Futures – The National Policy Framework for Children and Young People, 2014-2020 concluded at the end of 2020. A final Annual Report for 2020 was published on 20 January 2022, along with updates to the policy framework indicator set.

Recently, my Department concluded a public consultation on the policy framework which allowed children and young people, parents, professionals working in this sector and others to have their say on what is going well and not well for children and young people, as well as identify priorities for the new framework. This is part of an on-going consultative process for the framework, to ensure it reflects the priorities of children and young people and all those who support them.  

A new Framework is intended to be published at the end of 2022, covering the period 2023-2028.
