4 – SUPREME AUDIT INSTITUTIONS’ INPUT INTO POLICY EVALUATION AND OVERSIGHT – 121

Chapter 4 Supreme Audit Institutions’ input into policy evaluation and oversight

This chapter looks at the role of supreme audit institutions (SAIs) in supporting policy evaluation and oversight through assessment of key government functions of evaluating for results as well as ensuring accountability. It maps the activities of ten SAIs that are active in assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of evaluation mechanisms in the executive branch. In addition, this chapter illustrates how SAIs are providing oversight and insight through audits and advisory work that can help government to determine whether outcomes of policies and programmes have been achieved. Findings in the chapter offer considerations for SAIs to make in an era of performance-based public management, including the potential trade-offs between auditing for accountability and evaluating for results.
