Research and Information Strategy
• Agreement by the Executive and foreword signed by FM and dFM
• Took over a year to agree
• Publication rights and report quality issues
• Annual report to Executive covering:
• Policy relevance, costs, impact on policy
![Page 13: Presentation Overview Research and Policy Links What we are telling Ministers about an ageing society Research role: adherence to the UK Code and the structures.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bfd41a28abf838cac945/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Successes
• Strategy documents underpinned by evidence : Poverty, Gender, Childcare
• FMdFM/Executive endorsement of research strategy and annual report on value and impact
• Much activity within the sector (CAP, OP Advocate, ASP, CARDI, Age Concern Help the Aged)
• Better understanding among SpAds of the evidence• Assembly Committee familiarity with and use of our data• UK Statistics Authority – ONS not a ministerial
department, NI Executive agreed the structures
![Page 14: Presentation Overview Research and Policy Links What we are telling Ministers about an ageing society Research role: adherence to the UK Code and the structures.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bfd41a28abf838cac945/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Limitations
• Departments do not always fully exploit the policy relevance of their data – departmental business needs take precedence – new training being developed
• Universities do not always fully exploit the policy relevance of government data – academic output influenced by the research assessment exercise
• Sir Gus O’Donnell – statisticians should be ‘boring’, stats without context are boring
• Policy officials focus on strategy and professionals tend to focus on measurement
• People use evidence selectively – evidence does not always change opinions
![Page 15: Presentation Overview Research and Policy Links What we are telling Ministers about an ageing society Research role: adherence to the UK Code and the structures.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022070413/5697bfd41a28abf838cac945/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Rights based and budget analysis approaches need to be supplemented with research illustrating
economic interdependence
• Children who fail at school need more support if GVA is to improve
• GVA needs to improve to support an ageing population therefore:
• Child well being is related to pensioner poverty• The new childcare strategy has implications for
(particularly female) pensioner poverty
