Triennial review of the Social Security Advisory Committee, led by a departmental senior civil servant, independent of the department’s stewardship arrangements with the committee.

There were 2 stages to the review. The first stage of this review challenged the continuing need for the Social Security Advisory Committee and questioned whether its functions are necessary and that it remains appropriate to be delivered by government.

The second stage of this review examined whether the body’s control and governance arrangements are in accordance with the recognised principles of good corporate governance.
