No documentation checks for this scheme
The nine checks measure what myScheme publishes about a scheme. There is no myScheme
record here to measure, so this page shows none. A score of nought would read
as a verdict on the scheme when it is a fact about the portal.
This line is classified as a citizen-facing scheme rather than a budget head; the arithmetic is on /divergence.
What the CAG’s reports record
How the scheme was set up, as the Comptroller and Auditor General’s
reports state it, cited to the printed page. Never what an audit found.
