New Zealand's Auditor-General has spoken out against Government agencies, claiming their reporting produces 'a lot of rubbish'.
John Ryan told the Finance Select Committee that agencies like to tick off 'project milestones', but their actual accomplishments are 'questionable'.
He says the general public doesn't get to see or experience the outcomes of these reported milestones.
"The public really wants to know what outcomes they're getting from these projects, not whether they're managing it on a day-to-day basis. That's much more than management activity."
