HM Treasury 2025–26 — Departmental overview
What it examines
Brings together evidence on Treasury’s finances, National Wealth Fund lending, oversight of arm’s-length bodies and controls on government financial transactions. It revisits the need to strengthen monitoring of compliance with the Financial Transaction Control Framework.
Why it matters
Provides a route into Treasury’s role as owner, funder and overseer of public financial institutions. It distinguishes historical lending from commitments to lend and restates earlier audit findings rather than reporting a new investment decision.
