Implement indicators to evaluate public policy (ES0094)

What is the problem/need that is desired to resolve with the commitment? The lack of indicators so that the citizenship can evaluate the actions of the Administration of the Autonomous Region of the Balearic Islands. Public management must be oriented towards results. To do so, objectives and indicators must be established in advance to strengthen the mechanisms of monitoring and control and make use of the evaluation.

Objectives of the commitment The goal is that gradually most of the policies of the Balearic Islands Government,, both those that are already implemented and those that are proposed to implement, to clearly specify the objectives that are intended to be achieved with said policy, including an evaluability study through which all of the main characteristics can be known, which will make it possible to later evaluate them, proposing the necessary monitoring indicators, as well as, if possible, the values of reference.

Brief description of the commitment To carry out monitoring and study of most of the public policies of the Government of the Balearic Islands, and if appropriate, propose new objectives, incorporate new indicators or make those proposals that allow incorporating all types of improvements.

How does the commitment contribute to solve the problem or cover the need? It is about analysing the impact of each one of the policies applied, studying the need or not to propose new objectives or review the indicators used, understanding the quality of the action of governing and its effects are a right of the citizenship.

Why is the commitment relevant with respect to the values of Open Government? We understand Open Government as a culture of governance that is based on and at the same time should promote principles and values related to transparency, integrity, participation of the citizenship and accountability to the citizenship by the public powers. In this sense, the commitment established is basically oriented towards accountability by the Government of the Balearic Islands for a greater efficacy and efficiency of its public policies through evaluating the results obtained from said policies.
