the United Nations Sustainable. Development Goals and their successors or equivalents;
the United Nations Sustainable. To achieve the national outcomes, the National Performance Framework aims to get everyone in Scotland to work together. This includes national and local government, businesses, voluntary organisations and people living in Scotland. The Framework is underpinned by statute, indeed, the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015 places a duty on the Scottish Ministers to consult on, develop and publish National Outcomes for Scotland and to review them every five years. It also places a duty on public authorities to have regard to the national outcomes in carrying out their functions. ScotRail Trains Ltd is a public corporation and Scottish Rail Holdings will fall within the ambit of a public authority or body15 and, accordingly, have a significant contribution to make in the delivery of the national outcomes and objectives set out in the National Performance Framework. The National Transport Strategy sets out the Vision, with a 20 year horizon, for a sustainable, inclusive, safe and accessible transport system helping deliver a healthier, fairer and more prosperous Scotland for communities, businesses and visitors. That Vision is underpinned by four interconnected Priorities, each with three associated Outcomes (see Figure 3).
