Preface
This volume represents an example of a collaborative effort by the
Swedish International Development Agency and the World Bank Institute
to further the exchange of knowledge on better practices in public expenditure
management reform to improve access to public services by the poor in
African and other developing countries. I hope that policy makers in developing
countries will find this volume useful in their future endeavors to
improve their budgetary processes and institutions.
