Abstract
This Public Expenditure Review (PER)
takes stock of fiscal developments and institutions and
analyzes the key issues that bear on the level, composition,
challenges, and effectiveness of government spending and the
stance of fiscal policy. Understanding these issues is
essential, as new fiscal pressures are emerging in the
process of economic transformation and as citizens demand
higher quality of education and other public services. The
fiscal reform agenda remains extensive but working on it
will provide an opportunity to strengthen the effectiveness
of government and boost inclusive economic growth. In the
process of ongoing economic transformation, the government
is facing several challenges in fiscal policy, for which
this PER has developed policy options.
