Savings from operational PFI contracts

29 NOVEMBER 2013

______________________________________________________________________________

Our vision is to help the nation spend wisely.
Our public audit perspective helps Parliament hold
government to account and improve public services.

The National Audit Office scrutinises public spending for Parliament and is
independent of government. The Comptroller and Auditor General (C&AG),
Amyas Morse, is an Officer of the House of Commons and leads the NAO,
which employs some 860 staff. The C&AG certifies the accounts of all government
departments and many other public sector bodies. He has statutory authority
to examine and report to Parliament on whether departments and the bodies
they fund have used their resources efficiently, effectively, and with economy.
Our studies evaluate the value for money of public spending, nationally and locally.
Our recommendations and reports on good practice help government improve
public services, and our work led to audited savings of almost £1.2 billion in 2012.
