Abstract
| |
| This Country Assistance Evaluation for Pakistan needs a clear strategy and a defined program to support it. The Bank has recently been working with the government on supporting devolution to increase accountability at lower levels of government. This, coupled with administrative reform, is expected to increase the effectiveness of government services. However, since many of the patronage problems have occurred at the local level, and the Bank is primarily working with federal and provincial counterparts, the Bank will need to ensure that the strategy and project design address problems at the right level. Projects should be more focused and scaled to fit the capacity of the implementing agencies. A shift from very broad adjustment loans to more focused loans designed to address a limited number of sectors or issues would be more appropriate for the current implementing capacity, and would likely lead to more effective loans. |
