The Prime Minister's Office (PMO) supports the Prime Minister in administrating the division of responsibilities between other ministries and has a role - formal and informal - in co-ordinating government policies on convergent issue-areas. It organizes committees which are appointed by the Prime Minister to work on selected issues and enforces and monitors the implementation of government decisions.
As the highest authority of the executive branch, the PMO regularly reports to Parliament on the execution of parliamentary resolutions.
The Prime Minister and the Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs, together with the project management team of the principal reduction actions, today announced the outcome of the government's Debt Relief Programme in the conference centre Harpa.
