<p>Aid spending is subject to the same rules as all other public expenditure. In line
with Treasury rules on Managing Public Money, departments through their accounting
officers have ultimate and direct responsibility for their share of the aid budget
and remain accountable to Parliament and UK taxpayers for how they spend it. The Government
has well established mechanisms to govern aid spending and DFID provides support to
other government departments to help strengthen the quality of their aid spending
and maximise its impact on poverty.</p>
