| Summary: | This report is designed to assist the
authorities develop an overall road map for reforming budget
preparation. A specific focus is on the steps to be taken to
introduce a medium-term framework for the central
government's budget and a performance-based budget.
These reforms require important preconditions to be in
place, and a substantial change in the culture, incentives
and behavior of the public service, and are likely to take
several years to complete. Successive Indonesian governments
have embarked on various reforms in the budget and public
financial management system. New laws for governing budget
and planning processes were adopted during 2003-04, which
are gradually being implemented. The national development
planning agency (BAPPENAS) and spending ministries have
developed strategic government and ministerial plans that
provide a basis for elaborating the framework for
performance measurement and evaluation. Reforms are thus
starting from a secure base and can also take advantage of
the improved and stable macroeconomic and fiscal conditions,
including a low fiscal deficit and a declining government
debt ratio. |
