Accelerating Accountability Mechanisms in Public Finances

The activities of the project component where SCTM participates as a project partner are designed to develop electronic reporting systems for municipal assemblies on local municipal budgets - public budget portals (PBP). Developing public budget portals in at least 10 municipalities will enable representatives/members of the local legislative branch (Municipal Assembly members) to engage in the budget cycle process much earlier than November 1st when the usual budget cycle starts, by following consistently basic features of both budget preparation and executions over the whole year. This way they will be provided with detailed information on current budget execution and preparation of the new one from the very early stage by being linked with the official system of the budget and finance department (in charge of budget preparation) through public budget portals.
