  8. In Draft Mission Statements for BCOP • Reference to working with OECD countries to identify good practices in Program Budgeting

  9. OECD Meeting on Performance Budgeting – June 11-12, 2007 • Performance Budgeting reform: to improve decision making by providing more concrete information on what is accomplished with the money

  10. OECD Definition • Form of budgeting that is based on a relationship between allocation and results • Beyond this there is little agreement on: • Type of information • At what stage of budgeting it should be introduced • How to relate performance information and resource allocation

  11. Important Factors to Keep in Mind • There is no single model – countries need to adapt to relevant political and institutional contexts • Whole-of-government planning and reporting framework is important • Performance Information should be integrated into the budget process

  12. Important Factors to Keep in Mind • Systems that automatically link performance results to resource allocation should be avoided – may distort incentives • It is often difficult to identify causes of poor performance • Must update output data continuously • Evaluations and assessments should be independent

  13. Important Factors to Keep in Mind • It is vital to have support of political and administrative leaders • Staff capacity at the MOF and spending ministries is critical • Reforms must adapt to evolving circumstances • There must be incentives for civil servants and politicians to change behavior

  14. 3 Categories of Performance Budgeting • Presentational: • Simple display of allocation and results (targeted or realized) • Purpose: accountability • Performance-informed: • Performance information along with other factors is taken into account • Purpose: planning and accountability

  15. 3 Categories of Performance Budgeting • Direct/formula: • Funding is based on results achieved • Purpose: resource allocation and accountability [Note: Used only in specific sectors in a limited number of OECD countries. Acts like a contract]
