Scrutiny of major capital projects is improving but difficult spending
The Scottish Government is improving its oversight of major capital projects such as hospitals, schools, prisons and roads in the face of increasing budget pressures and uncertainties.
An Audit Scotland report published today, Management of the Scottish Government’s capital investment programme, looks at how well the government is running its programme of capital projects. It also follows up a 2008 Audit Scotland report on major capital projects.
The report says the government has improved its scrutiny of its programme in recent years. However, improvements have been slow in the information about the status and performance of individual projects, which would help with management of the programme.
