Banksy's new work shows two children lying on their backs and looking toward the heavens, with one pointing a finger skyward. As Christmas approaches, the work could be read as two children hopefully looking for signs of Santa Claus in the sky, which would be an uncommonly sweet statement from the often sardonic artist. But its location points to a more critical dimension.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) has today questioned three Chief Officers as part of its review into Arm’s Length Bodies (ALBs), Grants and Subsidies.
The Panel learnt:
1. The principles of the Public Finances Manual (PFM) are not being applied or implemented consistently, with varying approaches being undertaken by different Chief Officers/Accountable Officers.
2. The definition of "value for money" in respect of the work of ALBs is not consistent across government departments.
3. That funding cuts are often implemented without undertaking a wider strategic review into the effectiveness of ALBs, potentially negatively affecting those bodies that are meeting objectives.
4. The Panel was encouraged to learn that the recommendations from the Comptroller & Auditor General (C&AG) report are being addressed and will be implemented; the preparatory work for a review is underway.
5. The Panel was also supportive of any potential move to longer-term - or multi-year - funding for ALBs, as this will allow for long-term strategic planning.
