Aims and Objectives

Our purpose is to improve the quality of life of people in the North West by serving Ministers effectively and ensuring that government policy is developed and implemented in the best way.
We want to achieve high and stable levels of growth and employment in the region, and to build an inclusive and prosperous society that can develop in a sustainable way.

To achieve this, our role is to:

 

  • challenge the region to provide strategic leadership
  • make significant investment decisions and manage the performance of delivery agencies
  • join up departmental policies
  • influence and explain policy
  • exchange knowledge and best practice across partners/delivery agents, and
  • provide intelligence (in a regional context) for Whitehall.

 

In discharging this role, the values we will exhibit are:

 

  • being clear about where we are going, in order to provide direction
  • being engaged with our partners in a way that respects their roles and responsibilities
  • being open and responsive to change
  • continuously improving our ways of working, and
  • retaining, attracting and developing high performing staff.

 

Our objectives

Details of our specific priorities in the region can be found in our current business plans: the Government Office for the North West Corporate Plan 2008-2011 and the Government Office Network Corporate Plan 2008-2011.
