The Commission shall from time to time identify—
changes in society that have occurred or are expected to occur and are relevant to the duties specified in sections 8 and 9,
results at which to aim for the purpose of encouraging and supporting changes in society that are consistent with those duties ("outcomes"), and
factors by reference to which progress towards those results may be measured ("indicators").
In identifying outcomes and indicators the Commission shall—
consult such persons having knowledge or experience relevant to the Commission's functions as the Commission thinks appropriate,
consult such other persons as the Commission thinks appropriate,
issue a general invitation to make representations, in a manner likely in the Commission's opinion to bring the invitation to the attention of as large a class of persons who may wish to make representations as is reasonably practicable, and
take account of any representations made.
The Commission shall from time to time monitor progress towards each identified outcome by reference to any relevant identified indicator.
The Commission shall publish a report on progress towards the identified outcomes by reference to the identified indicators—
within the period of three years beginning with the date on which this section comes into force, and
within each period of five years beginning with the date on which a report is published under this subsection.
The Commission shall send each report to the Secretary of State, who shall lay a copy before Parliament.
