The State of South Africa’s Economic Infrastructure: Opportunities and challenges 2012 - 9.1 MB
 

Governments around the world rank infrastructure policy among their greatest concerns. The modernisation of infrastructure is seen as being critical to future economic competitiveness and crucial to accommodating expanding populations in urbanising environments (Urban Land Institute and Ernst and Young, 2011).

South Africa is no exception: infrastructure lies at the heart of government’s stimulatory fiscal package and is a pivotal component of the New Growth Path (Department of Economic Development, 2010), accounting for just less than 8% of GDP in the 2012/13 fiscal year. The Department of Performance Monitoring and Evaluation (DPME) in the Presidency and the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA) collaborate on performance monitoring and evaluation of infrastructure delivery.
