Efforts in Afghanistan have sought to
enable systematized data disclosures and simplify data
collection efforts, given security concerns that often
restrict movement and coordination. In this context, the
following governance enhancements are being supported: the
new draft mining regulations seek to empower the use of data
for improved governance and fiscal accountability; digitized
systems of the ministry of mines and petroleum (MoMP) now
increase fiscal transparency and accountability. Efforts are
being made in Iraq to facilitate reliable data disclosures
in the oil and gas sector. Such disclosures will enable
improved stakeholder engagement and provide a baseline for
analyses and sector reforms. The most recent extractive
industries transparency initiative (EITI) report has
provided clarity to stakeholders about vital aspects of
sector governance, such as data regarding licensing,
revenue-sharing and allocation mechanisms, revenues
collected, the roles and functions of various state-owned
enterprises (SoEs), and the relationship of these SoEs with
the governmental ministries. When it comes to using EITI or
other data systems for improved fiscal transparency and
accountability, the priority steps for the future in both
case study countries are closely linked to their respective
priorities: in Afghanistan, the priority is to boost
investor confidence, increase governmental revenues, and
counter illicit revenue flows; and in Iraq, the priority is
to expand the umbrella of fiscal transparency and
accountability to critical sectors and other areas of
government intervention, which account for very significant
revenue flows. |
