Initially, the PIP will produce civil service policy options, public procurement reform recommendations, and suggestions for improved Internal Audit and Internal Control Systems, based on ongoing conversations with three key oversight institutions, I.e., Central Inspection, Civil Service Board, and the Court of Account.

Once completed, the reform recommendations will (in close coordination with the international
community) be presented to a larger Lebanese stakeholder community to secure buy-in and support.
The reform recommendations will be aligned with the Lebanon Crisis Response Plan, the Lebanon
Reform, Recovery and Reconstruction Framework, the National Anti-Corruption Strategy, the Ministerial
Statement and other significant Lebanese policy priorities.
