"content": "The other item is the issue of how the Supplementary Estimates are being presented, bearing in mind that we have moved to programme-based budgeting where we need the outputs and the indicators to be very clear. So, since we have said this four times as we debate the budgets, I think the Parliamentary Budget Office which has technical people who are very qualified may need to come up with a kind of a framework to be telling the Treasury: “This is the way we want the Supplementary Budget to be presented to Parliament so that it makes our work easier to analyze.” This will sort out the issue of Budget implementation because we will be told: “The money you allocated for this programme, this is the level of achievement and on the basis of this, you need more money or you need to reduce the money because the implementation has reached this level.” We may need to come up with that framework so that we are clear on what they should present. If we move that way, we will be helping. It will make the work of analyzing this budget very easy for us as a House and it will make us monitor the implementation. With those remarks, Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support and thank you for giving me the chance."
