Sierra Leone: Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper-Progress Report

International Monetary Fund

No 2008/250, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: This report describes the progress made in implementing the Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper for Sierra Leone covering the period 2005–07. Efforts to reform the public sector were not successful. Management and Functional Reviews were conducted for several ministries, departments, and agencies but the recommendations were not implemented. A Senior Executive Service program was also developed but government and development partners could not agree on an implementation strategy and therefore the funds required for implementation were not provided.
