This strategy covers 2014 to 2017. It sets out how we will review and reform public bodies to make them leaner, more efficient, more accountable, and more effective.

It has 3 main parts:

  • a strengthened review programme for public bodies, concentrating on securing efficiency savings
  • a unified policy responsibility for the structure and governance of non-ministerial departments in the public bodies reform team
  • stronger, more strategic relationships between public bodies and departments
