193 Mr. C. Lenihan asked the Minister for Finance the guidelines in existence for the assessment, monitoring and control of major public sector infrastructural projects. [23513/99]
The Guidelines for the Appraisal and Management of Capital Expenditure proposals in the Public Sector, published by the Department of Finance in July 1994, aim to assist public sector managers in their assessment of major capital projects. The guidelines set out the main steps which should be followed in evaluating and managing such projects, consider the major issues of principle involved and describe the principal methods of appraisal.
