The Project Management and Supervision Department at the General Treasury has initiated preliminary efforts for the implementation of the National Evaluation Policy within the state sector, starting from next year.
Recognising the need for an institutional structure to execute this policy, without establishing a new institution, it has been decided to establish a permanent National Evaluation Committee.
This committee will be responsible for making independent decisions at various stages of the evaluation process and annually submitting recommendations for evaluations conducted to the Cabinet of Ministers and Parliament, as applicable.

In line with this, the Cabinet of Ministers has approved a proposal presented by President Ranil Wickremesinghe, who also holds the position of the Finance, Economic Stabilisation and National Policies Minister. 
The proposal entails the appointment of a National Evaluation Monitoring Committee, chaired by the Finance, Economic Stabilisation and National Policies Ministry Secretary. 
This committee will be tasked with taking the necessary actions to present information and recommendations to the Cabinet of Ministers regarding the outcomes revealed during the evaluations conducted by the committee.
