The number of open projects which will be closed or transferred to another delivery body. The number of sites owned which will be transferred in accordance with the Assets and Liabilities Plan. The number of Directorships and Ownership interests from which the Agency will withdraw as early as possible in the year. The reduction in staffing, as shown in the table on page 8. Spend against budget. The budget allocation for the Agency’s Programme, as confirmed by BIS, is £108m for 2011/12.
The Agency will also ensure ongoing monitoring of its responses to BIS Action Notes, requests under the Freedom of information Act, Parliamentary Questions and any complaints received.
