| description |
This paper evaluates the extent of
fiscal resource availability for infrastructure in four East
African countries and explores the main options for its
expansion. A number of major channels will be examined. The
first is the extent to which expenditure is well allocated
across sectors, sub-sectors, expense categories,
jurisdictions and geographic areas. The second is the extent
to which there is scope for improving efficiency by
enhancing the operational performance of state owned
enterprises (SOEs), restoring adequate levels of
maintenance, or improving the selection and implementation
of investment projects. The third is the extent to which
user charges are applied and set at levels consistent with
cost recovery. The fourth is the extent to which private
sector participation has been fully exploited as a vehicle
for raising investment finance. While it is difficult to
evaluate these things very precisely, a number of proxy
indicators are used to shed light on the matter. |
