| Where should Kosovo be in 2003 and what resources are needed to get there? The preliminary answer of the UNMIK EU Pillar's Department of Reconstruction is set out in the Brochure "Kosovo 2001-2003 : from Reconstruction t o Growth. A Preliminary Assesment by the Department of Reconstruction " The two co - heads , Mehmet Hajrizi and Roy Dickinson, presented their vision on 6 Decembre to the next three years are : to |

| develop the Private Sector so as to make it the main engine of economic growth, to ensure high quality e ducation from pre-primary school to university level, to reform the helath s ervices, to alleviate poverty and to build up the capacity of Kosovars to govern themselves. The construction and rehabilitation of houses should also continue. The brochure is intended to launch the discussion about Kosovo's path to growth, in Kosovo and among the donors. The official public reconstruction and investment programme is due to be avaible in mid Decembre following e ndorsement of the Kosovo Budget 2001 by Interim Administrative Council (IAC) and signature of the Budget Regulation by the Special Representative of the Secretary General . The official programme, as set out in the Budget, replaces and expands upon the content of the brochure, wich is preliminary document under the sole responsibility of the Co-heads of the Department. " Our purpose in producing this document is to inform donors and general public in a timely way of what shape the Budget is likely to take. But only the budget will be authoritative and will give a more comprehensive picture ", said Dickinson. The Department of Reconstruction records bids for expediture from spending agencies of more than DM 1,700 milion for 2001, DM 670 milion for 2001 and DM 386 milion for 2002. The decreasing amounts reflect the expected capacity of Kosovo to move gradually from reconstruction to economic development. At the beginning of Decembre, just more than 1 billion seemed likely to be avaible from donors for spending in 2001.The Department of reconstruction has therefore had to negotiate with spending agencies to reduce their bids for 2001 and to put off lower priority programmes to 2002. " we believe that Kosovo needs continued inestments just as much as ever if this poorest part of Europe is to become the prosperous, just and stable society which we all want" | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
