ABSTRACT
The study evaluated the role of bilateral institutions in capacity
building with a focus on the European Union Support for Reforming
Institutions Programme (EU-SRIP) in Anambra State. The study
examined relevance of EU-SRIP goals, effect of EU-SRIP on
enhancement of civil servants competence in public finance
management and challenges facing implementation of EU-SRIP in
Anambra State. Data were collected from 330 senior civil servants
from two purposively selected ministries: Ministries of Finance and
Economic Planning and Budget. Mean, frequency counts and tables
were used to present and describe collected data. Also hypotheses
were tested through the application of t-tests at the 0.05 level of
significance. Findings revealed that the goals of EU-SRIP were in
line with critical capacity building needs of Anambra State public
finance management; that EU-SRIP had positive effect on the fiscal
management competence enhancement of civil servants. The study
therefore, recommends among others a simplification of operational
procedures of EU-SRIP to make it easier for government official at
state and local governments to key in.
