| Summary: | The Public Expenditure Review (PER)
carried out in Togo in November 1995-November 1996 had two
principal objectives: to assist the government in
identifying priorities to increase the efficiency and equity
of public spending; and to internalize the expenditure
review exercise. The PER process included several features
designed to strengthen government capacity and ownership: 1)
a one-day in-country workshop on expenditure issues which
was attended by over 70 government officials from various
ministries and government agencies; 2) a two-week workshop
held in Washington, DC, attended by key Directors from
central and sectoral ministries involved in public
expenditure management; and 3) follow-up in-country meeting
within the Togolese administration the recommendations that
emerged from the Washington workshop. |
