SARAJEVO 24 May 2001
SARAJEVO, 24 May 2001 (OSCE) - The Mission to Bosnia-Herzegovina formally signed a memorandum of understanding with the Central Bosnia Canton yesterday, 23 May 2001, to commence implementation of the OSCE Cantonal Administration Project (CAP). The Central Bosnia Canton is the third canton to sign such a memorandum of understanding.
The CAP is the OSCE mission's largest and most comprehensive project undertaken at the cantonal level. The CAP is designed to increase the efficacy, transparency and accountability of canton administration by targeting administrative and legislative authorities alike.
"The OSCE Mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina intends to provide support to proactive cantonal governments in their efforts to reform, and the CAP program is an element of that support," said OSCE Acting Head of Mission Ambassador Dieter Woltmann. "This is a key component of the OSCE's efforts to assist in promoting good governance and accountability of government officials to the citizens."
The OSCE Mission will inaugurate the project in Central Bosnia Canton with the launch of a financial management assistance mission, followed by an organizational assessment mission. Some other areas that will be targeted by the project include human resource management, administrative culture and economic management.
