This thematic review examines current performance reporting within departmental annual reports and accounts, with a focus on how clear and accessible this reporting is for users of the accounts. The review considers whether existing guidance is fit for purpose, examines compliance with existing guidance, and makes recommendations for how performance reporting can be improved in the future.

This review commits HM Treasury to several actions that have been agreed by the Financial Reporting Advisory Board. HM Treasury will also continue to support departments with continuous improvement in their financial reporting, in line with the commitments made in the 2019 Government Financial Reporting Review.
