The report emphasises another aspect of societal performance: vulnerability.
Steve Wiggins, co-author of the report, emphasised the importance of the public sector.
But the vast inequalities and their impact on people's health will not just sort themselves out, the report emphasised.
The report emphasises the difference in education between people in economically developed areas and those in poorer, less developed ones, regardless of religion.
The report emphasised that "flexibility in the fiscal framework should be used to modify the pace of adjustment in the event of weaker demand growth".
It undertook some interviews and reviewed some information but the report emphasised it was not a "detailed investigation" and that it had "not comprehensively examined all available material".
The report emphasises the vulnerability of cities, stating that "large urban areas" especially those with poor governance could become "centres of criminality and disaffection," and as such, "focal points for extremist ideologies".
The report emphasises the importance of planning; making markets (labour, goods and services) accessible to other neighbourhoods in the city, other cities and export markets; and financing for large infrastructure projects.
But rather than structural change to government departments, the report emphasises the need to make the civil service culture more innovative, to increase business skills and use digital systems to create new, more cross-cutting programmes, focused on the needs of citizens.
The report emphasises how little progress has been made to date: "Transport is the only sector of the UK economy in which carbon emissions were higher in 2004 than the baseline year of 1990, and the only sector in which emissions are projected to be higher in 2020 than in 1990".
