Summary:

The first review of the three-year PRGF arrangement approved on May 2, 2001, has been delayed to give the authorities time to rectify weaknesses in program execution during a four-month consolidation period by meeting specified revenue and expenditure targets set for that period. The medium-term macroeconomic framework underpinning the poverty reduction strategy paper is consistent with that of the initial poverty reduction growth facility (PRGF)-supported program approved. The public enterprise restructuring and privatization program remains a key element of the structural reform agenda.
