Current Budgetary System • The current budgetary system of the country is a mixed system • Block Vote Budgeting • Cabinet of Ministers approves the block vote budget • MOF fixed ceilings for sectors, line Ministries (Recurrent + Capital) • Flexibility is given to line Ministries to decide their budget within the ceiling • Programme Budgeting • Cluster based • Expenditure Head, Programmes, Projects, object code
Current Budgetary System- contd. • Performance Based Budgeting • Medium-term Budgetary Framework • Vision, Mission and KPIs for each line Ministry have identified. However, linkages between these outcome indicators and actual budget figures are still weak. • Line Item Budgeting • Expenditure figures are available for administrative and monitoring purposes Incremental Budgeting • Add more for last year accruals
Themes of Education Policy • Increasing equitable access • Improving the quality of education • Enhancing the economic efficiency and equity of resource allocation • Strengthening education governance
Challenges • Establish strong links with relevant Ministries , MOE, MPI, and MOF for MfDR • Independent Evaluation of results • Establish mechanism to introduce these KPI’s to provincial level (Two tiers of Administration) • Identify exact budgetary allocations to KPI’s
