Details

The Evaluation Registry is the new home for all Government evaluations. It is a website where all planned, live and published evaluations conducted or commissioned by Government Departments are registered. Evaluations on the Registry can be searched and browsed by users looking to learn from previous evaluations of Government policies, projects and programmes. 

It is mandatory for all Government evaluations to be registered on the Registry. This requirement was announced by the Minister for the Cabinet Office and Chief Secretary to the Treasury in correspondence to all Secretaries of State in March 2024.
