Written Question
Overseas Aid
Wednesday 4th May 2016

Asked by: Phillip Lee (Liberal Democrat - Bracknell)

Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what measures she has put in place to improve ministerial oversight of aid programmes.

Answered by Justine Greening

I have introduced more stringent ministerial sign off controls and this is backed up by thorough monitoring and evaluation processes and management information to better identify underperforming programmes so they can be dealt with.
