<p>DFID values the unique expertise all its partners offer in the administration of
aid. To date, we have no plans to end our use of private for-profit contractors who
play a small but vital part by bringing sector expertise, operational flexibility
and innovation through, for example the early exploitation of new technology providing
products or services in new or underdeveloped markets, enabling DFID to help people
in some of the most challenging environments in the world.</p><p> </p><p>DFID does
not place a cap on salaries of aid charities’ CEOs, since we recognise that salaries
are driven by competition and multiple market forces making it impractical to set
a maximum salary. We do however subject all our partners to rigorous scrutiny of their
effectiveness and value for money, in advance and throughout the delivery of our programmes.
Our priority is to drive value for British taxpayers’ money, cost-effectiveness and
impact in all our programmes.</p>
