Article 25 Evaluation
United Kingdom
The evaluation of the SPD shall cover the utilisation of resources, the effectiveness and efficiency of the assistance and its impact and shall draw conclusions and recommendations, using notably evaluation results already available.
It shall cover the factors contributing to the success or failure of implementation and achievements and results, including their sustainability.
Evaluations of the SPD shall be the responsibility of the Commission, in coordination with the Monitoring Committee.
The evaluation programme should be outlined in the SPD.
Evaluations shall, in particular:
provide regular and independent assessments of the Fund's operations and activities by comparing planned results and objectives with actual achievements; and thereby
enable OCT, Member States and the Commission to feed the lessons of experience back into the design and execution of future policies and operations.
The results of the evaluation shall be made available to the public.
