DFID has robust monitoring and evaluation procedures to ensure UK taxpayers’ money is achieving the results we expect of it. Precise monitoring arrangements vary by project; however progress is always reviewed by DFID, on an annual basis. All of our reviews demonstrate confidence in the quality of MSI’s services in developing countries.
