FO R E W O R D
Efficient management of the Government’s asset base is critical to the delivery andperformance of public services. The 2007 Comprehensive Spending Review (CSR) willencourage greater exploitation of under-utilised assets and the disposal of assets no longerrequired for service delivery. This will build on the significant progress, of £12.2bn since2004-05, already made towards the target of £30bn of asset disposals by 2010-11.
To strengthen the information base for investment decision-making in the CSR, this revisedand updated edition of the National Asset Register highlights the commitment totransparency, accountability and good asset management. With information on over 370different Government bodies, the 2007 National Asset Register is the most comprehensive listof central Government assets and maintains the UK’s position at the forefront of internationalbest practice in public sector asset management.
A decade on from its first publication, this edition of the National Asset Register includesthree notable developments. Changing the threshold of itemised assets from £1,000 to£1 million allows the reader to focus on the important information by clearly pinpointingthose assets of highest value. The inclusion of a detailed breakdown of acquisitions anddisposals over the last five years improves transparency, details the evolution of the asset baseand demonstrates progress against the Government’s asset disposal strategy. Lastly, a newstandardised format for each department helps the reader to locate a particular body or assetand to compare data across departments.
After a decade of substantial growth in public investment, the CSR will improve assetmanagement practice within the public sector. The National Asset Register is a key tool inhelping to achieve this. By providing a clear and comprehensive picture of the current assetbase, it will encourage departments to make the best possible use of the assets they own andto make better informed decisions over future acquisitions and disposals, enhancing theefficiency and effectiveness of the UK public sector.

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE 2007 NATIONAL ASSETREGISTER?
Bodies covered by the Nat ional Asset Register
The National Asset Register (NAR) covers all central government departments together withtheir executive agencies (including trading funds). In addition, it includes information onexecutive non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs), NHS bodies and public corporations.Bodies outside the public sector that are funded or sponsored by departments and NDPBsare not included.
Assets belonging to local authorities are not included in this document as their assets do notbelong to central government. Local authorities are required in their annual accounts todisclose information on their assets. Copies of local authority annual accounts are availablefrom the authorities themselves.
For reasons of national security no information is included on the assets owned by theSecurity and Intelligence Services.
The Register includes entries up to March 2005. Thus it does not take account of anysubsequent machinery of Government changes, such as the creation of new departments.Transfers, acquisitions or disposals of assets resulting from these changes will be coveredin the next edition of the Register.
Assets covered by the Nat ional Asset Register
The NAR includes all tangible fixed assets (including military and heritage assets), intangiblefixed assets (such as software licences) and fixed asset investments (such as share holdings)owned by departments. In deciding whether to include an asset, departments have followednormal accounting rules for the recognition of assets. All assets shown in the departmentalentries are included in their balance sheets under resource accounting as long as they remainunder departmental ownership.
The NAR covers only fixed assets. Therefore information on stocks and other current assetsis not included.
ACCOUNTING TREATMENT
Values of all assets or groups of assets have been given throughout the Register in millions ofpounds. They have all been valued using their net book value as at 31 March 2005, allowing acomparison to be drawn between the information in the NAR and that published in theGovernment Resource Accounts. Acquisitions and disposals of assets are valued using theirnet book value at the time of the acquisition or disposal.
The 2007 National Asset Register itemises only those assets worth more than £1 million. Thisincrease in the threshold from £1,000 to £1 million allows the reader to focus on the importantinformation by clearly pinpointing those assets of highest value and streamlines the reportingrequirement on departments. Assets worth less than £1m have been aggregated into thedifferent categories outlined in the Government Financial Reporting Manual.

The health bodies are the only bodies that do not follow this format. This is because thenumber of health bodies is so large that it would not be practical to reproduce the nine tablesfor each. Instead, health bodies have been combined into a single table for each country andincluded under the relevant health department.

3 .2 THE BANK OF ENGL AND
As the UK’s central bank, the Bank of England is responsible for the overall stability of the UK’s financial systemas a whole. This is achieved through its two core purposes:
• Stability of the monetary system. The Bank’s role is to monitor this, as part of its monetary policyfunctions. Under the Act, the Bank’s objectives are to maintain price stability and, subject to that,to support the Government’s economic policies, including its objectives for growth andemployment. The operational responsibility for these functions lies with the Bank’s MonetaryPolicy Committee (MPC), its main function being the setting of interest rates; and
• Financial system infrastructure, in particular payments systems at home and abroad. Financialstability entails detecting and reducing threats to the financial system as a whole. Such threats aredetected through the Bank’s surveillance and market intelligence functions. They are reduced bystrengthening infrastructure, and by financial and other operations, at home and abroad,including, in exceptional circumstances, by acting as the lender of last resort. The Bank stands atthe heart of the financial system; and it falls to it to advise the Chancellor, and answer for itsadvice, on any major problems inherent in the payments systems.
