1. The chief executive must prepare and maintain a system performance framework (the framework).

2. The purpose of the framework is to maintain regular strategic oversight of the system by—

3. improving understanding of whether and to what extent legislative and system outcomes are achieved; and
4. enabling continuous evidence-based improvements to the operation and implementation of the system; and
5. supporting continuous improvement in the way in which the legislation is implemented; and
6. establishing a process to identify and respond to emerging system-wide issues, including national direction outcomes.

7. The framework must set out—

8. key system performance indicators; and
9. the holders of the information that the chief executive will use to inform their understanding of the indicators; and
10. matters to be addressed in system performance reports; and
11. the process for developing reports and reviews under sections 212 to 214; and
12. any other matters that the chief executive considers relevant or necessary.

13. When preparing or updating the system performance framework, the chief executive must consult—

14. the Minister on the key system performance indicators to ensure that the framework addresses any particular areas of interest for the Minister; and
15. other relevant agencies on the key system performance indicators to ensure that—
    1. the framework addresses any particular areas of interest for those agencies; and
    2. the agencies can support the chief executive to gather relevant data efficiently and can support necessary system improvements; and
16. Māori groups that the chief executive considers to be representative of relevant interests; and
