Macroeconomic & Corporate News Planning ministry tasked with drafting executive plan to spur economy The Council of Ministers Tuesday entrusted the Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation to put forward an executive plan and performance criteria for the recently-endorsed 2018-2022 government plan to stimulate the Jordanian economy, and to incorporate these into the consecutive development programmes as a top priority for execution. The cabinet also assigned the planning ministry, in coordination with the concerned ministries, to carry out the five-year scheme and draw up the executive programme and performance criteria for all the interventions, initiatives and projects of 20182022 and incorporate these into the executive development programmes as a top priority for implementation, as these will be the basis for setting the consecutive budgets.
