The TA on Budget Execution will produce the following outputs:<br />

The political situation allows the delivery of TA in normal conditions and the authorities<br />

are committed to the implementation of the comprehensive PFM action plan prepared by<br />

the 2011 FAD/<strong>METAC</strong> TA mission.<br />

It is expected that support and TA by donors and international institutions will continue<br />

(this includes the World Bank (WB), USAID, EU, State Secretariat for Economic Affairs<br />

(SECO)) and will be led by an effective coordination mechanism at the MOF.<br />

has provided significant tax administration advice and TA to support the modernization<br />

efforts of the tax authorities. Over the period of 2004-2005, two diagnostic missions have<br />

guided the design and development of this reform. Initially, emphasis was placed on<br />

development of a strong tax policy framework, establishment of an integrated tax<br />

administration, preparation for self-assessment, and segmentation of the taxpayer base –<br />

2 To include for instance: (a) estimates for three forward years in addition to the budget year itself; (b)<br />

revised “Estimates of Expenditure and Revenue” tables; (c) service delivery and performance information;<br />

(d) definition of subprogram outputs and performance measures; (e) measurable objectives for each<br />

program; and (f) supplementary budget documents including the budget review which provides a detailed<br />

explanation of the underlying policies behind the budget.
