As Eva Wiseman (Observer/not yet online) points out:

'while governments have an obsession with efficiency, its still limited solely to cost-cutting. There seems to be little interest in, for instance, making access to welfare payments more efficient or healthcare, or childcare... No, efficiency is only important when trying to maximise profit'!

efficiency defined by cost, rather than by effective practice(s);

we know the cost(s) off everything but the value of nothing!
