I am unsure as to who is best placed to answer my next question. Independent oversight of any agency is necessary, but particularly this new one. Is there international best practice that we should be emulating? Has any other country done this work and put in place an independent oversight mechanism to ensure that not only does funding go where it needs to, but that key targets are being reached by the agency during its life?
