The report of the 2012 to 2013 triennial review of the Technology Strategy Board describes the purpose of triennial reviews, the process adopted for this review and presents findings based on feedback from stakeholders. The report draws on this evidence to make recommendations as to the future of the Technology Strategy Board.

Triennial reviews are a Cabinet Office mandated process for reviewing the function of non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs), the appropriateness of the bodies’ delivery mechanisms and their governance arrangements. Reviews should take place every 3 years, unless an exemption is agreed by the Cabinet Office.
