DFID\u2019s 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>
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\u2019s 2020/21 Governance Statement.<\/p>
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 \u2013 both of which will inform the priorities of the new Department.<\/p>"}
