| Summary: | Public expenditure management is at the
heart of Guinea's strategy for poverty reduction and
growth. The impact of public expenditures on the economy and
the poor hinges on the government's ability to improve
its performance in the three major areas: (1) the
restoration of macroeconomic stability through prudent
policies and improved revenue mobilization (the
stabilization issue); (2) the strategic allocation of
resources reflecting priority sectors (the allocation
issue); and (3) the efficient execution of expenditures,
notably with regard to externally financed expenditures, to
enhance delivery of basic public services through the
decentralization and the accountability in the management of
expenditures, and the implementation of civil service
reforms (the execution issue). The Public Expenditure Review
addresses these three key issues--stabilization, allocation,
and execution - as well as the effectiveness of expenditures
in the three priority sectors of education, health and rural
development in terms of outputs and outcomes. |
