  5. National Audit Office – Managing central government properties
Government has extensive property holdings, which it uses to deliver services. The Cabinet Office has categorised these property assets into 12 portfolios. The health, defence and school portfolios are the largest, together making up 89% of government property by area and 85% by value. Government needs to manage its property effectively in order to achieve strategic priorities.
