Abstract

This article compares methods of selecting and ranking issues in program evaluations and value-for-money audits. It considers the following questions: Who should select the issues? What are the appropriate criteria for selecting issues, and can these criteria be collapsed into a single index of “issue importance” by which issues can be ranked?
