Book excerpt: Government targets are increasingly concerned with the outcome of services instead of the inputs. These targets can involve partnerships between national, regional and local bodies as well as private companies, which is known as the delivery chain. The Audit Commission, and National Audit Office have combined to look at the local and national aspects of three targets: Bus services; affordable housing; childhood obesity. This report looks at bus usage, which is likely to meet its target of a 10% increase by 2010. However this is mainly due to the increase in London, where there is a much clearer delivery chain and tighter regulation.

Book Synopsis Delivery chain analysis for bus services in England by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts

Download or read book Delivery chain analysis for bus services in England written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee of Public Accounts. This book was released on 2006-05-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000, as part of its ten-year transport strategy, the Government set a Public Service Agreement target (amended in 2002 and 2004) to increase bus and light rail usage by 12 per cent between 2000 and 2010, achieving growth in all English regions. This would help to reduce car use, congestion and vehicle emissions. Five years after the target was set, overall usage seems likely to reach the national target, but mainly because of the substantial increase in bus passenger numbers in London (up by over 30 per cent, due to the commitment of the Mayor and Transport for London, increased public subsidy, congestion charging and enhanced bus services). Usage in all other areas has declined. The Department for Transport and local authorities have limited leverage outside London to influence the commercial operators who provide 80 per cent of bus services in a deregulated market. The Committee wishes the Department to obtain data so it can measure the contribution made to reduce congestion and emissions, and to monitor the operation of the market and the extent to which monopolies may exist and may be affecting fare levels and passenger demand. It should use the full range of measures available to stimulate growth in demand, including the direction of subsidy. It should encourage local authorities and operators to co-operate to improve the network of bus services, their reliability and quality. The Transport Innovation Fund, providing funding for new schemes from 2008-09, may offer an opportunity to increase the use of public transport.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication sets out the Government's response to the Committee's report (HC 574, session 2005-06 (ISBN 0215027590) on the eighth annual report by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office ('Human Rights Annual Report 2005', Cm. 6606, ISBN 0101660626). Issues discussed in the report include: the international legal framework and the work of international institutions; the war against terrorism and treatment of detainees in Guantanamo Bay, extraordinary rendition and the use of information derived from torture, the situation in Iraq and the trial of Saddam Hussein; the arms trade and military assistance, and corporate social responsibility. Amongst the Government's responses, it disagrees with the concerns the Committee raised over i) the fact that the Minister responsible for human rights issues is also the Minister of State for Trade, roles that the Committee found to be often contradictory; and ii) the decision to subsume human rights work into the more general category of sustainable development.

Book Synopsis Crown Prosecution Service by : Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee of Public Accounts

Download or read book Crown Prosecution Service written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee of Public Accounts. This book was released on 2006. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following on from a NAO report (HCP 798, session 2005-06, ISBN 0102936978) published in February 2006, the Committee's report concludes that the handling of cases in magistrates' courts has in recent years become complex and protracted to the extent that it no longer amounts to summary justice. 55 per cent of the £173 million cost of delay in the magistrates' courts is attributable to the defence, but the police and the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) account for another 14 per cent (£24 million) each. The CPS needs to review its organisational structure, revise its system for preparing for magistrates' court cases by adopting current best practice, and address the cultural resistance within the organisation to more modern working practices.
