1) without residential buildings.
2) incl. land procurement and engineering.
3) incl. general equipment and furniture.

(37) From Table 10 can be read, that the proposed re-allocation of IDA funds covers all requirements without increasing the budget; allocation for other purposes (vehicles, recurring costs) have not been touched.

The GOB funds for equipment and civil works (as per PP) are not sufficient to cover the requirements: the shortage of 79.62 lakh Taka is mainly attributed to the fact that the complete HQ building is shown under GOB financing. If FRI can find another donor for cost of construction of the HQ building (or if a much cheaper building would suffice) also GOB funds for this sector of the project are sufficient. GOB funds for other sectors (salaries, operational costs, research) have in practice already shown not to be sufficient; actual requirements will be worked out in a revision of the PP in 1987.
