  8. JOINT APPROACH (1) LINE MINISTRIES Improving capacities by developing Yearly Operational Plans of Actions (YOPA) which will: • Serve as a managerial reform tool—reduce burden and improve efficiency: • Include PRSp, EIp and other cross-cutting policy priorities and respective sector strategies • Improve resource allocation and create preconditions to shift towards programmatic budgets • Serve as a basis for developing better information and monitoring systems and better access to information • Provide better coordination within and between departments • Enable defining better internal organization • Reflect legal obligations and current reform results • Serve as a basis for improved service delivery

  9. JOINT APPROACH (2) “CENTRAL” INSTITUTION • Coherent policy input from SEIO and PRS leading to improved cooperation with LMs and strengthening capacity to monitor and coordinate policy implementation • MoFinby introducing: a) programmatic budgeting to focus on outputs and outcomes in resource allocation, b) mid-term macro and fiscal framework, and c) improved reporting on budget execution • MIER by improving systems for programming of international assistance, including EU financial assistance • GS by improving capacities to undertake future central level planning, coordination and reporting • MoPALSG by integrating reform initiatives and PAR in general and providing legal framework for their implementation • All of them by improving cross-government operational coordination

  10. Results of the pilot phase • A new objectives-based planning methodology designed • 4 LMs developed their YOPAs for 2006 testing the new methodology • Lessons learned and input available for: • Development of program budget guidelines • Development of EU assistance programming guidelines and its link to other int’l assistance • Development of integrated monitoring and information system

  11. LM’s overview – Positive aspects • Enables overall insight into all LM’s activities (including int’l projects) • Provides better insight in stakeholders needs • Prevents overlapping of projects and activities • Provides a practical tool for intersectoral cooperation and communication within LM • Enables better resource allocation

  12. Focus of the next phase of the JP • Further capacity building in LM and central government institutions: • More LMs involved • Process aligned with budget cycle • Support to: • The phased introduction of program budgeting • The introduction of the new system for programming of EU assistance • The establishment of better monitoring and information system • The process of the central Government office reform • Ensure that all relevant legislation reflects the concept of the new planning, budgeting, monitoring and reporting systems • Phased roll-out of the new planning system (MPALSG)

  13. Importance • Ownership • Participatory bottom-up approach (tailor-made for Serbian Public administration) • Demand driven process – led by the network • JP processes are aimed at improving the way the GoS works
