Monrovia, Liberia - The Public Financial Management Reform Coordination Unit (PFMRCU) on Thursday paid an hour-long visit to the Offices of the EU Delegation in Mamba Point, Monrovia. The meeting was intended to familiarize the EU with the workings of the PFMRCU. 

The Coordinator of the RCU thanked Theo Kaspers, the head of EU Cooperation for the invitation and affirmed the Minister of Finance and Development Planning, Hon. Samuel D. Tweah strong commitment to working with the EU.

Dr. Munyeneh noted that the RCU is working tremendously to improve the reform space in the Ministry and the Country at large.
