Analysis of the Moldovan Government's Report on the Implementation of the 2011 State Budget
Automatically translated summary. The full text is available in Romanian.
This analysis examines the Moldovan Government's report on the implementation of the 2011 state budget. It assesses how transparent and informative such reports are, identifies the strengths and shortcomings of the current process, and suggests how it could be improved, drawing on international best practices in budget reporting.
The general conclusion is that budget implementation reporting is formalistic. It relies exclusively on financial indicators and pays no attention to evaluating performance in spending public money to achieve policy goals.
One of the key recommendations is that the Government prepare and publish a Citizens' Report on state budget implementation. It should show how public resources and assets were used in the best possible way to reach development targets that matter to citizens and private companies: reducing poverty, increasing employment and ensuring an encouraging business environment.
