<p>DFID’s evaluation approach is underpinned by the principles of transparency, rigour
and independence, achieved with skilled analytical staff that have a deep and extensive
evaluation experience.</p><p><br>Every DFID programme is subject to an annual review
which looks at the performance of partners and DFID, including consideration of Value
for Money. These reviews are published. Controls are in place to ensure that costs
will be identified and recorded in line with Managing Public Money, including where
necessary any write-offs or losses. The anticipated decline in GNI and hence ODA,
the impact of covid-19, alongside all other key issues will be disclosed as necessary
within the department’s 2020/21 Governance Statement.</p><p><br>We will continue to
look at how money can be spent most effectively against our priorities, including
through the Integrated Review, and the Spending Review – both of which will inform
the priorities of the new Department.</p>
