Question to the Cabinet Office:
Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to measure the progress of the UK's development other than by the measurement of GDP per capita, as set out in the Social Progress Imperative report, Social Progress Index 2017; and what assessment they have made of the UK's ranking in that report.
The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the Authority to reply and will place a copy of their letter in the house library.
