The emphasis is on establishing a baseline understanding of key fiscal management and policy challenges, highlighting reform measures for policymakers, and setting the agenda for the next phase of work.

Intergovernmental transfers and fiscal decentralization are the focus of Section 5, and section 6 summarizes the main findings from the PER state case studies. Section 7 is dedicated to fiscal issues in the South. 2012-06-11T17:44:09Z 2012-06-11T17:44:09Z 2007-12 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2007/12/8945929/sudan-public-expenditure-review-synthesis-report http://hdl.handle.net/10986/7672 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work :: Public Expenditure Review Economic & Sector Work Africa Sudan
