The Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) was established in 1977 and sits within the ''cluster of control'' along with the audit and inspection units of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. IOB conducts independent evaluation of all foreign affairs policy and operations, including, but not limited to, development co-operation. IOB focuses on evaluating broad policy and cross-cutting themes, while advising policy departments and embassies on the planning and implementation of project and programme evaluations. IOB services a ''help-desk'' function for these evaluations, though it does not have a full quality assurance role.
