UK Open Government National Action Plan 2019-21


The UK National Action Plan for Open Government 2019-2021 sets out the UK government's commitments in the areas of open government, anti-corruption and transparency. It is the fourth such National Action Plan (NAP), the first having been published in September 2011.

Participant countries in the Open Government Partnership are expected to co-create a two-year National Action Plan with their civil society organisations. The UK Plan was developed in partnership with the UK Open Government Network.

There are separate commitments for the UK devolved administrations: the Scottish Government, Northern Ireland Executive and Welsh Government.

The Plan was published during the 6th Open Government Partnership Global Summit on 28 May 2019, and the Ministerial foreword was written by Margot James MP, Minister for Digital and the Creative Industries (Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport). Previous UK NAPs had been published by the Cabinet Office.
