National Auditor General highly critical of public service cuts

” … The NAO boss, who reports directly to Parliament rather than the Government, pointed to cuts to local authority budgets which had resulted in a reduction in money available for social care, with knock-on effects on the NHS.

“Now if you’re going to go through much deeper, more profound organisational cuts . . . you need to understand what you’re doing better than that,” he said.

Whitehall civil servants had “a responsibility to be much better informed at the centre” about the impact of reforms, rather than leaving local government to deal with the fallout, he said.”
