million and above.<br />
(iii) Donor assistance should not be sought <strong>for</strong> the purchase of vehicles, airconditioners and other<br />
consumer durable goods produced in the country. Similarly, projects should not be sponsored <strong>for</strong><br />
outright import of road making or earth moving machinery and drilling rigs etc. by the government<br />
departments/agencies without a project design fully justifying the additional acquisition after<br />
taking into account inventory of the existing machinery of all public sector departments/agencies.<br />
Ef<strong>for</strong>t should always be made <strong>for</strong> pooling available resources rather than resorting to fresh imports<br />
under new projects.<br />

agencies at any subsequent stage <strong>Planning</strong> and <strong>Development</strong> Division should invariably be<br />

September, 1996 that in case the loan and/or grants negotiated and/or finalized is over and above<br />
the size and scope of concept clearance the proposal be re-submitted <strong>for</strong> approval of the competent<br />
authority. It has further been decided that no aid agreement be finalized and signed till PC-I is<br />
approved or at least anticipatory approval of the competent authority is obtained with respect to<br />
scope and size of the PC-I and possibility of its budgetary financing is envisaged.<br />
6.50 Vide <strong>Planning</strong> and <strong>Development</strong> Division's O.M. No. 7(20)PS/PC/95-Fa dated 4-1-1997, it<br />
has been decided that concept clearance of <strong>for</strong>eign aided projects by the Concept Clearance<br />
Committee will be considered as final as was the practice from the year 1983 to 1990 (Annexure-<br />
