Dr. Colm O'Reardon:

On evaluation generally, we have to have a programme of evaluations for what we do. We have to manage the resources that we have and we have to assess where our resources should be deployed as regards evaluations. We have accepted the Comptroller and Auditor General's recommendations. We believe we need to do some semi-methodological research to figure out the right way to evaluate expenditure under the National Training Fund so that we can apply that methodology consistently across future evaluations. The plan is to engage with the ESRI to get a piece of work done there.
