Recommendation 25
25
Published data on FCDO's implementing partners remains incomplete and obscure.
Conclusion
The FCDO’s use of private contractors is not inherently poor value for money. However, the published organisation and activity data of all implementing partners, including private contractors, is often incomplete and obscure. This exposes every pound spent to a higher risk of under-delivering impact. (Conclusion, Paragraph 87)
