	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>DFID has rigorous internal systems and processes to ensure that its aid reaches the intended beneficiaries and delivers results. A business case is mandatory for all new funding proposals, and all cases over five million pounds are approved at ministerial level. Once a programme is underway a formal review is required annually and at completion, which assesses and records whether funds have been used for their intended purposes and the results that have been delivered. Assurance that our aid money is being used for the intended purposes is gained form a number of independent providers including Internal Audit Department.</p><p>DFID has commissioned a package of reforms to further improve programme leadership, processes and capability and strengthen our oversight of spending.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hornsey and Wood Green answering member printed Lynne Featherstone question first answered 22/07/2014 11:43:02 answering member 1531 label Biography information for Baroness Featherstone
