Arms Length Bodies: Cost Effectiveness
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps she is taking to ensure that Arm's Length Bodies are value for money.
Answered by Darren Jones
The Chancellor has launched Phase 2 of the Spending Review, covering 2026/27 to 2028/29. This will zero-base all spending, including Arm’s-Length Bodies, conducting a full line-by-line review of all public spending to assess whether it is a priority for this government and represents value for money for the taxpayer. The Spending Review will conclude on 11 June 2025.
