Query: The Expediting Effect of Monitoring on Infrastructural Works. A
  Regression-Discontinuity Approach with Multiple Assignment Variables   Decentralised government levels are often entrusted with the management of
public works and required to ensure well-timed infrastructure delivery to their
communities. We investigate whether monitoring the activity of local procuring
authorities during the execution phase of the works they manage may expedite
the infrastructure delivery process. Focussing on an Italian regional law which
imposes monitoring by the regional government on "strategic" works carried out
by local buyers, we draw causal claims using a regression-discontinuity
approach, made unusual by the presence of multiple assignment variables.
Estimation is performed through discrete-time survival analysis techniques.
Results show that monitoring does expedite infrastructure delivery.
