Ceredigion Public Services Board
The Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 gives a legally-binding common purpose of seven Well-being goals and five ways of working (below) designed to support and deliver a public service that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
| 7 Well-being Goals | 5 Ways of Working – Sustainable Development Principles |
|---|---|
| A prosperous Wales | Long term |
| A resilient Wales | Prevention |
| A healthier Wales | Integration |
| A more equal Wales | Collaboration |
| A Wales of cohesive communities | Involvement |
| A Wales of vibrant culture and thriving Welsh language | |
| A globally responsible Wales |
The Act also puts a Well-being duty on specified public bodies to act jointly and establish statutory Public Services Boards (PSBs) for each local authority area in Wales. Each PSB must improve the economic, social, environmental and cultural Well-being of its area by contributing to the achievement of the Well-being goals.
The PSB’s main tasks will be:
- To prepare and publish an assessment of the state of economic, social, environmental and cultural well-being in Ceredigion
- To prepare and publish a Local Well-being Plan for Ceredigion setting out local objectives and the steps it proposes to take to meet them
- To take all reasonable steps to meet the local objectives they have set
- To prepare and publish an annual report that sets out the Board’s progress in meeting the local objectives
