Whitehall: Prioritising Performance

Debate between Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean and Baroness Twycross

Tuesday 10th September 2024 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Twycross (Lab)]

As a relatively new Minister, I need to reflect on the noble Lord’s experience; he makes some very interesting points. I will look into the points he raised and get back to him if that is acceptable?

[Baroness Symons of Vernham Dean (Lab)]

My Lords, can my noble friend expand a bit further on what the role of KPMG is in this as regards the senior service? I declare my interest as a former graduate in the Civil Service and as a former general secretary of the First Division Association. It would be very helpful if the Minister could be more specific about the role that KPMG is undertaking.

[Baroness Twycross (Lab)]

I will look into the role of KPMG further and I will revert to my noble friend on that point.
