This evaluation is a part of the reappraisal component of the planning work program which is a systematic recycling of the planning activities which leads to periodic changes in plans and programs, and consists of three cycles: annual review, major review, and complete plan re-evaluation. Details are given of the methodology, as well as of the results of the overall assessment and the analysis of variable runs. Conclusions based on the study are presented.
