Recommendation 34
34
Standardise MEL reporting requirements for ODA programming across government departments under FCDO oversight.
Recommendation
To enhance the effectiveness and accountability of UK ODA spending, we recommend that MEL reporting requirements of ODA programming should be standardised across all Government departments. In line with our recommendation in Chapter 2, the Second Permanent Under-Secretary at the FCDO should have formal oversight of this, given their responsibility for ODA spend across Government. (Recommendation, Paragraph 104)
