  1. Benchmarking Choices for BCOP Istanbul, February 25, 2008

  2. The Program Budget Survey • Answered many questions of interest to BCOP members • Slightly updated for this meeting • Do you want to repeat it?

  3. The OECD • Has many good surveys/studies that it does for budget practitioners • Samples: • When was the first government-wide initiative to introduce output measures? • If performance measures have been developed, what were the four most difficult problems encountered when introducing these measures? • Should BCOP ask to use their surveys or select some OECD questions for its benchmarking?

  4. PEFA • Done in most BCOP countries • Offers an International Standard to prove results • Does it meet yourneeds? • Should we select some PEFA ratings for a BCOP Benchmarking Matrix and add our own questions?

  5. PEFA Examples • PI-1 Aggregate expenditure out-turn compared to original approved budget • PI-5 Classification of the budget • PI-6 Comprehensiveness of information included in budget documentation • PI-12 Multi-year perspective in fiscal planning, expenditure policy and budgeting • PI-18 Effectiveness of payroll controls

  6. A Committee? • Should BCOP appoint a committee to explore benchmarking devices and report back to BCOP members through the website? • Would you participate in the committee and/or their recommended survey?

  7. BCOP Issues for 2008 • Program Budgets • Intergovernmental Finance • MTEF • Relations with Line Ministries • IT Impacts on Budgeting • Capital Budgeting • Monitoring and Evaluation

  8. 2008 Issues • Your Issues? • Special Funds for Health and Pensions?

  9. BCOP Budget Limits • We will have few funds until donors renew, based on the Evaluation • Expect that not all costs will be covered in the future for travel and meetings • Look for joint COP activities in 2008 with limited BCOP member participation • Your reaction?
