An Enabling State is one that seeks to address stubborn inequalities of outcome and gives people and communities more control over the public services they receive to improve their own wellbeing. Summarising the evidence from across the four UK jurisdictions and over 180 sources, our report, The Enabling State: Where are we now? provides a review of participative, outcomes-based, joined up policy making between 2013 and 2019 and details what each shift has entailed. Our assessment found that no jurisdiction of the UK is delivering on all of these shifts, but that overall Scotland and Wales have seen more development between 2013 and 2019 than England and Northern Ireland.
