| description |
Lesotho is a small landlocked country
with a homogenous population of 2.1 million. Lesotho's
gross domestic product (GDP) per capita was 1,023 dollars
and gross national income (GNI) per capita was 1,080 dollars
in 2010. The country also faces numerous challenges to its
social and human development. In this context, more
attention on the role and quality of public investment is
warranted. To improve public accountability and
transparency, the Government of Lesotho (GoL) introduced the
automated integrated financial management information system
(IFMIS) in April 2009. The study directly responds to an
explicit request of technical assistance from the ministry
of finance and development planning (MoFDP) and aims at
supporting the GoL in its major reform efforts to enhance
the efficiency of public investment management (PIM) and
increase the "value for money" in capital
spending. The overarching objective of this study is to
support the GoL in its efforts to prioritize public resource
allocation and enhance efficiency in capital spending, with
the ultimate goal of contributing to improved governance,
service delivery, and economic growth. The work is aligned
with the World Bank country assistance strategy (CAS) 2010
to 2014, in particular its first pillar on fiscal adjustment
and public sector efficiency. This report emphasizes the
complementary aspects of the institutions, incentives,
capacity, and process-related constraints to the functioning
of PIM. The focus of this report will also complement
ongoing public financial management (PFM) support by other
development partners. The report is presented in four
chapters, which are organized as follows: chapter one offers
a macro-level country analysis; chapter two presents recent
trends in public investments; chapter three focuses on
institution mapping and the diagnostic assessment of the PIM
system; and chapter four concludes with policy implications. |
