The objective of the review will be accomplished by identifying short- and medium-term measures to strengthen central capacity to deliver high quality policy management to the Prime Minister and government and effectively coordinate policy with other central institutions and line ministries. Four critical success factors will signal effective implementation: 1. Decision makers will focus increasingly on strategic rather than legal or administrative issues; 2. Sound policy formulation will precede and guide legal drafting; 3. GSG will be empowered by the Prime Minister to enforce the rules and assure the quality of ministry proposals; and 4. The central institutions responsible for public policy and public finance management will work collaboratively to provide coherent, high quality support to the GoR. 2. The CoG review seeks to engage Romania's decision makers in these deliberations and, ultimately, in a concerted effort to improve Romania's policy performance.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCOUNTABILITYACCOUNTABILITY FOR RESULTSACCOUNTABILITY FRAMEWORKADMINISTRATIVE ISSUESADMINISTRATIVE POLICYADMINISTRATIVE REQUIREMENTSADVERSE CONSEQUENCESAMENDMENTANNUAL BUDGETANNUAL BUDGET PROCESSANNUAL REPORTANNUAL REPORTSASSETSBEST PRACTICEBEST PRACTICESBUDGET ADMINISTRATIONBUDGET FORMULATIONBUDGET PLANNINGBUDGET PROCESSBUDGET REQUESTSBUSINESS REGULATIONCABINETCABINET OFFICECANDIDATESCAPACITY BUILDINGCIVIL SERVANTCIVIL SERVICECIVIL SOCIETYCLIMATECONSENSUS BUILDINGCONSULTATIONCRIMESDATA COLLECTIONDECISION MAKERSDECISION MAKINGDECISION-MAKINGDISCRETIONEARLY WARNING SYSTEMECONOMIC GROWTHECONOMIC POLICYEXPENDITURE DEMANDSEXPENDITURESEXTERNAL ASSISTANCEFINAL REPORTFINANCE MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL COSTSFINANCIAL CRISISFINANCIAL DECISIONSFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL PERFORMANCEFINANCIAL PRIORITIESFINANCIAL PROPOSALSFISCAL ANALYSISFISCAL CONSTRAINTFISCAL CONSTRAINTSFISCAL DISCIPLINEFISCAL FRAMEWORKFISCAL IMPACTFISCAL IMPLICATIONSFISCAL PRESSURESFISCAL STRATEGYFISCAL SUSTAINABILITYFISCAL TARGETFISCAL TARGETSFOREIGN AFFAIRSFRAUDGOVERNMENT ACTIONSGOVERNMENT DECISIONGOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTGOVERNMENT PERFORMANCEGOVERNMENT POLICIESGOVERNMENT POLICYGOVERNMENT PRIORITIESGOVERNMENT PRIORITYGOVERNMENT SERVICEGOVERNMENTAL POLICYHEALTH CAREINTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONSINVESTIGATIONINVESTMENT BUDGETJUSTICELAWSLEADERSHIPLEGAL DRAFTINGLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL REVIEWLEGAL TEXTLEGISLATIONLEGISLATIVE CHANGEMANAGEMENT RESPONSIBILITIESMEDIAMEDIUM-TERM EXPENDITUREMEDIUM-TERM EXPENDITURE FRAMEWORKMEDIUM-TERM OBJECTIVEMEDIUM-TERM PERSPECTIVEMEDIUM-TERM PLANNINGMEMBERS OF PARLIAMENTMINISTERMINISTER OF FINANCEMINISTER OF STATEMINISTERIAL COORDINATIONMINISTERSMINISTRY BUDGET REQUESTSMONEY LAUNDERINGNATIONAL PLANNINGNATIONAL POLICIESNATIONAL POLICYNATIONAL STRATEGYORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCEORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURESPARLIAMENTARY LAWPARLIAMENTARY LAWSPARLIAMENTARY RELATIONSPERFORMANCE ASSESSMENTSPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPERFORMANCE INFORMATIONPERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTPERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT SYSTEMPERFORMANCE MEASURESPERFORMANCE MONITORINGPOLICY ANALYSTPOLICY AREASPOLICY CAPACITYPOLICY CHANGESPOLICY CHOICESPOLICY COMMITMENTSPOLICY DECISIONSPOLICY DEVELOPMENTPOLICY DEVELOPMENT PROCESSPOLICY DEVELOPMENT PROCESSESPOLICY DOCUMENTPOLICY FORMULATIONPOLICY FUNCTIONPOLICY FUNCTIONSPOLICY IMPLEMENTATIONPOLICY INITIATIVESPOLICY ISSUESPOLICY OBJECTIVESPOLICY PLANNINGPOLICY PRIORITIESPOLICY PROCESSPOLICY PROCESSESPOLICY PROPOSALSPOLICY REFORMPOLICY REFORMSPOLICY RESPONSEPOLICY REVIEWPOLICY-MAKINGPOLITICAL APPOINTEEPOLITICAL CAPITALPOLITICAL INVOLVEMENTPOLITICAL PARTIESPOLITICAL SENSITIVITYPRIME MINISTERPRIME MINISTERSPRIVATE SECTORPROCUREMENTPROGRAM BUDGETINGPROGRAM IMPLEMENTATIONPROGRAMSPUBLIC ADMINISTRATIONPUBLIC DOCUMENTSPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE MANAGEMENTPUBLIC EXPENDITURESPUBLIC FINANCEPUBLIC FINANCIAL MANAGEMENTPUBLIC INVESTMENTPUBLIC POLICYPUBLIC POLICY ISSUESPUBLIC SECTORQUALITY ASSURANCEQUALITY CONTROLQUALITY OF LIFEQUALITY OF PUBLIC SPENDINGQUALITY STANDARDSREALLOCATIONSREFORM FATIGUEREFORM PROCESSREFORM PROGRAMREGIONAL DEVELOPMENTREGULATORY FUNCTIONSREPRESENTATIVESRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESOURCE ALLOCATION DECISIONSRESOURCE ALLOCATIONSSENIOR MANAGEMENTSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE QUALITYSOCIAL POLICYSOCIAL PROTECTIONSTATE BUDGETSTRATEGIC PLANSSTRATEGIC PRIORITIESSTRUCTURAL POLICIESSTRUCTURAL REFORMSTRUCTURAL REFORMSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCETRANSPARENCYUNFUNDED MANDATESWorld Bank10.1596/12270
