Full Description
World Bank Project Appraisal Document for an economic governance technical assistance grant to Haiti, Report No. 32147-HT, for SDR 1.4 million. Prepared during the 2004-2006 transition, it sets out the intended content of the grant and of a possible follow-on operation, and records the fiscal and public administration position of the period, including civil service pay decisions taken in consultation with the IMF. Its value now is largely as a record of what economic governance reform was expected to involve at that point.
