8 1. Framework for linking policies & strategies to the budget using sectors National PEAP (PRSP) MTEF + National BFP ANNUAL BUDGET Short Term Long Term Medium Term (An nual) Sector Sector Strategic Plans Sector BFP Detailed Spending Agency 8 Budgets
9 2. A simple sector policy & results Focus on agencies and inputs focus Performance Focus Sector Focus, with Output & Outcome Orientation Line item and administrative budget NB: Formal performance / programme budgeting has not been used Spending agency budgets grouped by sector (e.g. Health, Education) where policies made Allocations linked to the achievement of high level sector policies & objectives in BFP 9
10 3. The MTEF marries a Top Down and Bottom Up Process Top-down MT resource envelope Total and sector resources consistent with macroeconomic stability and broad policy priorities Bottom-up cost estimate of policy The current and medium term cost of achieving national (sector) policy objectives in line with resources envelope Reconciling costs with resources An decision-making process that reconciles these costs and new policy ideas with available resource envelop 10
11 3. The MTEF marries a Top Down and Bottom Up Process Top-down MT resource envelope Macroeconomic Framework & MTEF Ceilings - MoF Macroeconomic Framework: MT projections of available domestic and donor resources over the medium term MTEF Ceilings: 3-year sector budget ceilings consistent with macroeconomic framework & PRS/PEAP priorities. Ceilings presented by sector and spending agencies within that sector 11
12 3. The MTEF marries a Top Down and Bottom Up Process Bottom-up cost estimate of policy Sector Budget Framework - Sector Working Groups The Sector Budget Framework Paper sets out sector MT spending plans in detail Reviews of past performance; sets out sector MT policy objectives outputs and planned activities and corresponding expenditures for the medium term in line with MTEF ceilings 12
13 3. The MTEF marries a Top Down and Bottom Up Process National Budget Framework Paper sets out the overall medium term budget strategy for the government Sets out the justification for MT macroeconomic projections; sector expenditure proposals and policy options. Synthesis Macro framework and sector BFPs Reconciling costs with resources The national budget framework paper MoF, Cabinet & Parliament 13

An Inclusive & Consultative Process Reforms led by a strong, unified Ministry of Finance & Planning Top down establishment & enforcement of systems and rules Delegation to Sector Working Groups and Local Governments Making Spending Agencies Responsible 14

An Inclusive & Consultative Process The Consultative Budget Process Parliament Submission of Indicative Plan/MTEF Budget Speech April 1 May 15 June 15 Cabinet Cabinet Approval of BFP/MTEF Final Budget Approval MFPED National Budget Workshop -Indicative Sector Ceilings -Budget & SWG Guidelines Compilation of National BFP And Updated MTEF Finalisation of Budget Allocations/MTEF Inter-ministerial Consultations PER Line Ministries/ Spending Agencies/ SWGs/Donors Preparation of Sector BFP and Revised M TEF Allocations within the Ceiling Preparation of Detailed Budget Estimates Oct - Dec Jan - Mar Apr - June 18
19 5. Integrating the local government dimension Districts are the main implementers of basic services in Uganda. The BFP process is replicated through Local Government Budget Framework Papers, prepared by districts National policy priorities are funded at local governments via earmarked conditional grants which appear in sector MTEF s Large increases in allocations to local governments, in line with their functions National priorities vs local discretion - getting the balance right ¾ of increases in local funding have come in the form of conditional grants, which led to fragmented budgets & undermined discretion Since 2000 efforts to consolidate the grant system, by increasing focus on the budget, introducing discretionary development grants, and introducing flexibility in the recurrent grants system. 19
20 6. Integrating aid into the process and encouraging budget support Aid and Donors integrated into MTEF Aid to spending agencies reflected in MTEF since 1997 Donors part of sector working groups from the start, which has improved information sharing Project Aid now included in Integrated Sector Budget Ceilings from 2003 (intention is that sectors can switch from projects to the budget without resources) Donor Shifts towards sector and general budget support Increased on-budget funding and attention paid to the budget process Poverty Action Fund helped give credibility through protection of budget disbursements to PRS priority areas 20
21 Part 3 Successes, Failures and Challenges Factors behind Success, and Emerging Challenges 21
22 A Credible Process The MTEF is the Only Game in Town The first year of the MTEF is the budget A unified calendar for the MTEF and budget Overall credibility of the macroeconomic framework Fiscal aggregates have now been reliable for over a decade (+/- 3%) Budgetary resources are made available during the financial year E.g. in 2005/06 only one sector had disbursements < 95%, although there are variations by spending agency and budget type (recurrent, development) 22
23 Factors Behind Early Success Strong leadership from MFPED, and willingness to manage a transparent, consultative process: Engagement of Cabinet; delegation to Sectors and Sector Working Groups; and allowed civil society and donors to take part Political support to: fiscal discipline; reallocation of resources to poverty priority areas, sticking to the budget The process was demanding but kept simple I.e. no complicated programme/performance budgeting 23
24 Yet, there have been gaps Across the board, there has not been enough focus on operationally efficiency of sector budget allocations Sector budget submissions are of variable quality, and some have remained weak: Costing is not comprehensive across sectors Weak link of allocations with policy objectives Harder PFM reforms started late in the reform process Budget reporting has been on the basis of disbursements and not expenditures The budget is approved after the beginning of the financial year, leading to some uncertainty 24
25 and are emerging challenges Emerging Issues Increasingly difficult to adhere to budget calendar, and maintain consultations Budget formulation becoming more routine, technical, and less strategic MoF is finding it increasingly difficult to maintain the rules of the game, especially during budget implementation Fragmentation in policies/plans (National Planning Authority, Manifesto, Prosperity for All, Rural Dev. Strategy) Underlying factors Changes in Leadership in the MoF (political and tech.) Change in political environment, (shift from no-party to multi party democracy, changing policy agenda). 25
