Recommendation 18

18 Paragraph: 77

Inadequate evaluation prevents robust conclusions on policymaker's access to evidence.

Conclusion
It was not possible for us to form a robust conclusion about how well served our policy-makers are by evidence in 2024. Ironically, for a group of people dedicated to the cause of informed decision-making, analysts appear to have done little by way of evaluating the function’s success in delivering its vision. What we did hear anecdotally, however, suggests that there might be significant room for improvement.
