Robust M&E central to the success of Growth Deals
• Ensuring effective implementation
• Finding out ‘what works’ and where
• Maintaining the momentum around decentralisation
• Supporting future bids
• Providing accountability and transparency
04/09/14 2
M&E are distinct activities on a single continuum
• Monitoring
– Is delivery proceeding as planned?
– Emphasis on inputs and outputs
• Evaluation
– Has the intervention achieved it’s desired goals?
– Emphasis on outcomes and impacts
04/09/14 3
The emerging M&E model
• Monitoring – Core metrics for all LEPs and interventions
– Additional supplementary metrics where these add value
– Wide coverage of interventions
– Inputs/outputs to be reported quarterly, outcomes annually
• Evaluation – Aim for high quality, focused on a subset of interventions
– LEP-owned evaluation plans
– Complemented by additional ‘demonstrator’ evaluations and a national evaluation

M&E goes beyond the aggregate LEP level to look at specific interventions

Challenges & opportunities
• Numerous challenges
– Growth Deals are big and complex
– Consistency
• within Growth Deals: common definitions, approaches
• between interventions: ESIF, GPF, City Deals
– Resource constraints
• But…
– LEPs have local knowledge and understanding
– There are ample opportunities to work together and co-design

Emerging timeline
• Today – seeking your initial views
• Co-working with LEP sub-groups – Aug/Sept 2014
• Revised ME proposal shared with LEPs – Sept 2014
• Dialogue between HMG and LEPs – Oct/Nov 2014
• Local evaluation plans agreed and signed off – March 2015
• First monthly progress discussion – May 2015
• First quarterly monitoring return – June 2015

The monitoring framework
• Key principles… – Proportionate – Robust and
Consistent – Co-designed
• Frequency & format… – Hierarchy of
reporting – Standard reporting

Key messages
• M&E an integral part of Growth Deals - for both LEPs and HMG
• Focus efforts at the intervention-level
• Monitoring based around a set of core metrics to ensure consistency
• Flexibility built in – e.g. supplementary metrics, hierarchy of reporting
• We want to work together to define the detail

Seeking your views - monitoring
• What should LEPs report on?
– # of metrics
– Which metrics, definitions
– Ensuring consistency with other monitoring requirements
– Handling additionality and attribution
• How should LEPs report?
– Frequency, timing
– Reporting and data collection tools
– Consistency checking returns
– Consolidating smaller projects for reporting purposes
