There is no formal definition of “reviews”. The Department regularly reviews policies, programmes, projects and pilots to ensure that they meet their objectives. All important announcements are made to Parliament first by way of ministerial statements, replies to parliamentary questions, or in debate contributions by Ministers.

The information requested is not collated centrally and could only be provided at disproportionate cost.
