Old budget (before 2010):

Important management-related information missing –

Parliament needs more information for political decisions

Only input and no output orientation (written results): Who

gets how much, instead of what has to be the outcome?

From 2010 on:

No long-term, legally binding budget management or long-

term preview

Not reflecting general government

Big- sized, non flexible budget structure; lack of transparency,

too many data?

Bigger Picture missing: What do we want to achieve

with the budget? MOTIVATION?

What was the problem in connection

DS to PBB?

Page 5: The future of Slovenia - Katja Lautar, Slovenia

Challenges

How to evaluate big decisions?

Collecting meaningful data

Designing user-friendly IT-Tools

Increasing accountability

and awareness

evaluation and foresight

Political decision

based on the analysis?

Ex ante assessment of

alternatives before

decision

Page 6: The future of Slovenia - Katja Lautar, Slovenia

PBB is a step towards...

»Programme budget«:

(1) is a new way of thinking about public planning;

(2) is not a theoretical construction only, but also an actual manner of drawing up the budget;

(3) is referred to by various names, the literature makes a difference between outcome budgeting and performance budgeting;

(4) has an actual impact on decisions regarding the allocation of funds to competitive state users – agencies, ministries and programmes;

(5) represents a victory of a theory over (budget) processes up to the point where impacts/benefits and their corresponding costs define how an X amount of funds should be allocated to A and B activities.

Changes in monitoring and

implementation, as well as

a bureaucratic apparatus?

• IMPACT indicators are used at the highest level of general targets. They measure the impact of a set of measures; they are long-term indicators. Target values are determined four times a year / or for the periods covered by the National Programme of Development Priorities (NPDP) or the Slovenian Development Strategy (SDS)

General targets of individual policies

• In the general, specific targets of individual documents are achieved with a time lag as far as results are concerned, therefore indicators are wider-oriented (as a specific target is not affected by measures only, but other factors as well). For this purpose, OUTCOME indicators are determined. Target values are determined four times a year / or for the periods covered by the NPDP or the SDA

Specific targets of individual policies

• RESULT indicators – applied when measuring and aggregate impact of individual outputs at the level of measures and projects (result contains related measures or projects.) Target values are determined four times a year / or for the periods covered by the NPDP or the SDS

Results – collected measures and projects within the

framework of sub-programmes

• Effects of measures and projects are measured by the OUTPUT (outcomes which are evident as soon as measures/projects are completed). Target values are determined yearly.

„Missing incentives“ vs. burecratics

cost

• „Consequences are missed when

objectives are not attained.“

• „Outcome orientation leads to

increased administrative effort.“

Objectives to meet in 2016/17:

To introduce outcome orientation

Support priority setting and allocation of resources

Strengthen accountability & transparency

Adaptability is not all you need to succeed; it is inherently reactive and relies on luck.

Implementation strategy is what you need—and if you don’t have one, you will become part of someone else’s....
