Public expenditure review (PER); |
| description |
This study focuses on the implications
of East Timor's transitions from United Nations
administration to Independence, from reconstruction to
development and from aid dependence to fiscal independence
for public expenditure policy and management. Following an
assessment of the existing systems and their constraints, it
makes recommendations for improvements in the public
expenditure management system as a tool for achieving: 1)
Macro-Economic Stability and Growth, by delivering a
sustainable and productive application of resources; 2)
Poverty Reduction, by allocating resources to programs that
benefit and meet the needs of the poor; 3) Value-for-Money
in the application of public funds, by focusing on economy,
efficiency and effectiveness in public spending; 4) Good
Governance, by ensuring transparency in decision-making and
expenditure management, and accountability within the public
sector, to the legislature and ultimately to the public. 2.
The note is intended first as a contribution to the
Government's on-going reform strategy. Summary
recommendations are presented at the end of this report. The
note is also intended as a contribution to independent
assessments of the Government's financial management
system undertaken by external partners. Six Chapters,
including the Introduction, comprise the report: Chapter 2
reviews public expenditure trends over the past two years,
covering aggregate expenditure, structural and execution
issues, and ending with an assessment of the distribution of
the benefits of public spending in three sectors, power,
health and education. Chapter 3 examines the institutional
framework and process of planning and budgeting in core
government, autonomous agencies and the arrangements for oil
fund management. Chapter 4 assesses budget execution and
control systems, including supporting systems for personnel,
supply and procurement, and asset management. Chapter 5
examines the relationship between the core public
expenditure management system and external partners,
including donors and NGOs, and oversight institutions.
Chapter 6 presents a brief overview of the capacity building
challenges in the area of public expenditure management and
proposes a prioritization of actions to address issues
identified in the body of the report. |
