Abstract

The article examines the organizational and legal framework for the formulation and implementation of public programs aimed at developing regional infrastructure in the Republic of Uzbekistan. It analyses issues relating to cooperation among competent public authorities, financing, project selection, public procurement, construction quality, and performance evaluation. Drawing on regulatory legal acts governing the new programme for the development of social and productive infrastructure in 2026–2028, the “Prosperous Village” and “Prosperous Neighbourhood” initiatives, and the procedure for formulating infrastructure programmes, the article identifies potential institutional inconsistencies that may arise in practice. It puts forward proposals to clearly delineate powers and responsibilities in programme implementation, select projects according to needs-based criteria, introduce a unified electronic monitoring system, strengthen public participation, and plan in advance for the subsequent operation and maintenance costs of completed facilities.
