The aims of the seminars were to:
- Raise awareness of the Wales Audit Office's role relating to Improvement. Many are aware of our role relating to governance and assurance: the seminars showed the link between the two; and
- Address one of the recommendations from the "Grants Management in Wales" report, as good practice in monitoring and evaluation will improve current management and enable learning for future improvements.
