New Delhi, July 8 (IANS) The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) Wednesday set up a delivery monitoring unit that will review a select number of the government’s flagship programmes and iconic projects.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had made this announcement in the president’s address to both houses of parliament in June. President’s address to the joint session is prepared by the cabinet.
The main tasks of the unit will be to ensure effective delivery of selected programmes through the monitoring for outputs stated by the ministry concerned, fast-tracking of implementation and ensuring trouble-shooting through periodic reviews and informing the Prime Minister on a quarterly basis on the performance of the selected projects.
In addition, the unit will also make certain evaluations of impact of the selected programmes and ensure that information on these projects to the extent possible, is placed in the public domain.
The primary responsibility for implementing the flagship programmes and their appropriate monitoring and follow-up action will remain with that of the ministries and departments concerned.
The unit will be an oversight mechanism for these select flagship programmes with a view to improving monitoring arrangements, delivery of output and transparency.
