| description |
This report presents an in-depth
evaluation of the budgetary planning process in Albania and
the institutional arrangements required for better
management of public expenditures. The report does not
provide a detailed analysis of expenditures or an assessment
of investment projects and their outcomes in each sector.
Such a shift in emphasis is appropriate given the currently
weak institutional capacities in Albania and the need to
enforce accountability in the public sector.The report is
arranged as follows: Chapter 1 deals with the macroeconomic
frmaework and policies needed to maintain fiscal
sustainability and improve fiscal discipline. Chapter 2
discusses revenue and expenditure patterns, presents
measures that would enhance revenue performance and analyzes
the allocation of expenditures. This chapter is designed to
highlight the key expenditure priorities that should be more
fully addressed as Albania moves forward with the
medium-term expenditure framework process (MTEF). The bulk
of the report--Chapters 3, 4, and 5--addresses key
challenges facing Albania to improve its institutional
environment and its capacities. Chapter 3 assesses the
public expenditure management process and its weaknesses and
how this process should be reformed. Chapter 4 explains how
establishing the MTEF mechanism could provide a better
linkage between policy planning and the allocation of
resources. Chapter 5 discusses meeting institutional
capacity requirements. |
