Baroness Butler-Sloss (CB)
My Lords, is it intended that there will, in the future, be monitoring set up by the efficiency organisation looking at the Civil Service?
Lord True (Con)
It is intended that there will be ministerial accountability for the development and progress of the Civil Service. Each department is responsible for managing its employees, but overall central government functions will continue, and there will be central government awareness of the development of the programme, and ministerial attention will be given to it.
