The government welcomes the report of the ICAI’s review and its constructive recommendations on areas for improvement. The government is committed to learning and will work actively on the issues identified with partners across government.
Over the last 3 years, the government has focussed on putting the right structures in place for the CSSF to ensure that it uses cross government expertise, is responsive to government priorities, and complements core departmental work. The government has trained over 400 CSSF staff in programme management. Work is ongoing to refine and improve the UK’s approach to stabilisation and the government recognises that the CSSF can and must continue to improve. The recommendations made in ICAI’s report largely reflect work already underway to strengthen results management, including monitoring and evaluation.
