Studies
AIReF prepares studies only at the request of the Government, the Fiscal and Financial Policy Council, the National Local Government Commission, the Social Security Financial Commission, or the Territorial Administrations. AIReF’s studies are technical works in which public policies are analyzed, findings are obtained, and proposals are formulated, which are collected in the observatory of findings and proposals.
AIReF currently receives permanent assignments, known as Spending Reviews, and specific assignments from the central government and regional and local authorities.
The focus of all AIReF activities is the preparation of Reports, Opinions and Studies on the matters contemplated in the Spanish Organic Law creating the organisation. In addition, it will draft an Annual Report which will be widely publicized and disseminated.
AIReF will conduct the Studies requested by the national government, Tax and Financial Policy Board, National Local Administration Commission and the Social Security Financial Commission. Likewise, it may conduct any studies requested by the autonomous regions and local authorities. In particular, public policy assessments commissioned to AIReF by public administrations, including the Spending Review, fall under the category of studies.
