dc.description.abstractThe conflict of competing stakes on limited available resources is obviously the greatest challenge confronting the government of developing countries, thus, the quest for effective management of public spending. Nigeria has as a panacea to economic predicaments employed measures and to great extent adopted the World Bank reform tool of Structural Adjustment. Better management of public spending including investment programming are being sought through a process by which programmes are identified, prepared, approved and implemented. Strengthening this process using the management tools of monitoring and evaluation for control should lead to expenditure programmes that are appropriately sized and better attuned to the overall development goals. As construction works progress, most clients, especially Government Ministries, Parastatals and institutions are compelled either to pay unbudgeted increase in building project costs or abandon such projects. This research seek to modestly contribute to identification of process of implementation of public building construction programmes of the Department of Public Building, Federal Capital Development Authority. The emphasis will be on management of building construction programmes of the authority to ascertain the effectiveness or otherwise of management of expenditure control. The key to better management of public spending, including investment programming, lies in the process by which programmes are identified, prepared, approved and implemented. Strengthening this process should lead to expenditure programmes that are a more appropriate size and are more attuned to overall development goals. Developing countries including Nigeria have a panacea to economic predicaments employed measures and to greater extent adopted wholesale World Bank reform tools such as Structural Adjustment, Lending Operations, Technical Assistance and Country Economic and Sector Works. As construction works progress, most clients, especially government ministries, Parastatals and Institutions are compelled to either to pay unbudgeted increases in building projects costs or abandon such projects outrightly. This research seek to modestly contribute to identification of process of implementation of public construction programme with the sole intent of examining expenditure control. The Direct emphasis will be on effective management of public expenditure in public constructions programmes of the Federal Capital Development Authority by means of Expenditure Control.en_US
