Why Budgets Advocacy?Government policies/legislations are no more

than lips services if not backed by budgetary provisions.

The ‘strong interest groups’ get more budgets than ‘weak interest groups’.

Budgets are meant to put policies into actions.

Current and Development BudgetsBudget = Current budget + Development budgetCurrent budget = Salaries + Pensions + Running

Costs + etc. Non Salary Budget (NSB)

Development Budget = New Projects (Infrastructure etc.)
