MIT Budget cycle- year cycle-multi annual planning • Third Tuesday in September: “prince day”:Budget proposal government to parliament. Three financial / policy perspectives: • The Account for last year, • The proposal of the budget for next year, and • The policy programme for the next 4 years • MIT is part of the budget proposal: policy + budget (with outlook for 15 years) • Government set her course, chooses her policy priorities and the Parliament has to agree. Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management
MIT Stress between multi annual transport investment programme and political wishes Common experience: Politicians like to interfere in the transport programme especially when there have been elections. Question: how do these ‘disturbances’ reflect on the MIT? • Reductions of budget • Reshuffling within the programme of projects • Delay of some projects after 2010 Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management
MIT 4 justifications to make use of the MIT-model • To deal with the stress between political interventions and the need for a coherent programme of infrastructure projects; to assure long term budget • To translate long term policy into implementation by means of infrastructure projects • To bring plans of the government in public • Regulation of political discussions: If a party wants other projects than stated in the approved MIT, it has to provide justifications why those new projects should be better than the fixed MIT projects. Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management
MIT MIT, what is it? • Multi-annual coherent programme for national and regional infrastructure • ± 240 projects • Rail, road and watercourses • Passenger and freight transport • 2005 - 2010 • Financially secured programme as an annex to the budget (total of ±€ 50 billion up to 2010) • 60% construction, 40% maintenance Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management
MIT The current MIT: three time horizons • 2006-2010: “MIT in Concrete” (fixed investments) • 2011-2014: programmed investments (strong outline) • 2015-2020: indication of planned projects Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management

MIT Experiences of MIT • We have a method to deal with the stress between political interventions and the need for a coherent programme of infrastructure projects • Long term budget is more assured than before • We can link long term policy into implementation by means of infrastructure projects • To show the public which projects are planned • The MIT-book has an accepted value, this helps in political discussions • We have to make transparant choices between projects, which are soundly based Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management
