Abstract
In this article, it is argued that only a small fraction of social expenditures actually reaches the poor. Diverse social policy weaknesses which account for leaks and ineffective use of resources are reviewed, and the authors maintain that it will only be possible to overcome those deficiencies if serious ex ante and cx post evaluations of social programmes and projects are made.
