Independent Supplementary Reviews

The Independent Supplementary Reviews cover all Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) outside London.  They are a tool to help provide assurance to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills on the performance of the RDAs in responding to key current challenges. 

Each review provides an opportunity to highlight areas where each RDA is performing strongly, as well as identifying areas where performance could be improved. Following completion of the assessment process, each RDA will produce an Improvement Plan, which will detail specific actions to help improve performance, with timescales for implementation. 

The attached guidance will provide detail of the assessment areas, the timetable for site visits and report production.  Please contact either Sue Heard or Alison Hood if you need any further information.
