By December 2008, inflation has risen to 13.5 percent, far above the government target of five percent since 2004. It is important the government continue its effort to reduce inflation through monetary and fiscal policies, including reducing inflationary pressures on the budget by controlling wage bill growth in line with medium-term pay policy. The 2008-09 Medium-Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) projected optimistic targets for domestic revenue and, at a same time, pessimistic targets for foreign aid. Although domestic revenue has been rising over the recent past, the targeted 18.5 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in revenue effort is high given the fact that revenue has increased by only one percent of GDP annually in the past five years. It is important to improve reliability of the macro-framework by sustaining efforts to develop capacity in macro-fiscal policy and macro-modeling, which is an important tool for the government to properly assess expected levels of domestic revenue collection over the medium term. Although some major achievements have been obtained in capacity building program, priority areas for intervention have also been identified for 2009. These areas are: (i) strengthening of macroeconomic model (MACMOD) and the macro policy framework paper, taking into account the world economic crisis as well as new data developments in Tanzania; (ii) initiating MTEF upgrades (both central and sector) as well as program budgeting starting with the ministry of health and social welfare; and (iii) preparing the second edition of the budget background and medium term framework for 2009/10 - 2011/12.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCOUNTINGAGGREGATE DEMANDANNUAL BUDGETANNUAL BUDGETSANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTSARREARSAUDIT OFFICEBENEFICIARIESBLOCK GRANTSBUDGET AGGREGATESBUDGET ALLOCATIONBUDGET ALLOCATIONSBUDGET CREDIBILITYBUDGET DEFICITBUDGET DOCUMENTATIONBUDGET DOESBUDGET ESTIMATESBUDGET EXECUTIONBUDGET FORMULATIONBUDGET FORMULATION PROCESSBUDGET FRAMEWORKBUDGET MANAGEMENTBUDGET PREPARATIONBUDGET PREPARATION PROCESSBUDGET PROCESSBUDGET RESOURCESBUDGET SUPPORTBUDGETARY OUTCOMESBUDGETARY RESOURCESCAPACITY BUILDINGCAPACITY BUILDING ACTIVITIESCAPACITY BUILDING PROGRAMCAPITAL EXPENDITURECAPITAL EXPENDITURESCAPITAL INVESTMENTCAPITAL SPENDINGCASH FLOWCASH FLOWSCASH MANAGEMENTCASH RATIONINGCENTRAL BANKCENTRAL GOVERNMENTCIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONSCLASSIFICATION OF EXPENDITURESCOMMODITY PRICESCOMPOSITION OF EXPENDITURESCOUNTERPART FUNDINGDATA RELIABILITYDEBTDEBT RELIEFDEBT SUSTAINABILITYDECENTRALIZATIONDOMESTIC BORROWINGDOMESTIC FUNDINGDOMESTIC INTEREST RATESDOMESTIC REVENUEDONOR FUNDINGECONOMIC CLASSIFICATIONECONOMIC GROWTHEDUCATION BUDGETEXPENDITURE ALLOCATIONSEXPENDITURE CATEGORIESEXPENDITURE DATAEXPENDITURE ISSUESEXPENDITURE PLANEXPENDITURE PLANSEXPENDITURE TRACKING SURVEYSEXPENDITURESEXTERNAL AIDEXTERNAL AUDITEXTERNAL BALANCEEXTERNAL BORROWINGFINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITYFINANCIAL ASSISTANCEFINANCIAL CRISISFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMFINANCIAL MARKETSFINANCIAL STATEMENTSFINANCIAL SUPPORTFISCAL AGGREGATESFISCAL ANALYSISFISCAL DISCIPLINEFISCAL FRAMEWORKFISCAL IMPACTFISCAL INFORMATIONFISCAL POLICIESFISCAL POLICYFISCAL RISKSFISCAL YEARSFOREIGN CURRENCYFOREIGN FINANCINGFOREIGN LOANSGOVERNMENT BUDGETGOVERNMENT FUNDINGGOVERNMENT POLICYGOVERNMENT PRIORITIESGOVERNMENT SPENDINGGROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCTGROWTH RATEHEALTH CENTERSHEALTH SECTORIMPORT DUTIESIMPORT TAXESINCOME TAXINFLATIONINFLATION RATEINFLATIONARY PRESSURESINFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENTINTEREST RATEINTERNAL AUDITINTERNAL CONTROLSINTERNATIONAL DEVELOPMENTLOCAL GOVERNMENTMACROECONOMIC ENVIRONMENTMACROECONOMIC FRAMEWORKMACROECONOMIC MODELMACROECONOMIC SITUATIONMACROECONOMIC STABILITYMACROECONOMIC VARIABLESMAINTENANCE BUDGETMARKET PRICESMEDICAL SUPPLIESMEDIUM-TERM EXPENDITUREMEDIUM-TERM EXPENDITURE FRAMEWORKMEDIUM-TERM PROJECTIONMINISTRY OF FINANCEMONETARY FUNDMONETARY POLICYMULTILATERAL DONORSNATIONAL AUDITNATIONAL BUDGETNATIONAL STRATEGYNATURAL RESOURCESOIL PRICESOUTCOME INDICATORSOVERHEAD COSTSPERFORMANCE INDICATORSPERFORMANCE REPORTSPERSONNEL EMOLUMENTSPOVERTY REDUCTIONPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGYPRICE INDEXPRIVATE INVESTMENTPRIVATE SECTORPRIVATE SECTOR GROWTHPROGRAM BUDGETINGPROGRAMSPUBLIC ACCOUNTSPUBLIC DEBTPUBLIC ENTERPRISESPUBLIC EXPENDITUREPUBLIC EXPENDITURE REVIEWPUBLIC EXPENDITURE TRACKINGPUBLIC FINANCEPUBLIC FINANCIAL MANAGEMENTPUBLIC GOODSPUBLIC INVESTMENTPUBLIC SERVICEPUBLIC SERVICE DELIVERYPUBLIC SERVICESQUALITY ASSURANCEREAL INTEREST RATESRECURRENT EXPENDITURERECURRENT EXPENDITURESREFORM PROCESSREFORM STRATEGYREGIONAL ADMINISTRATIONRESOURCE ALLOCATIONRESOURCE ALLOCATION SYSTEMRESOURCE ALLOCATIONSRESOURCE MANAGEMENTREVENUE PROJECTIONSROAD FUNDROAD FUNDSROAD MAINTENANCESANITATIONSECTOR BUDGETSECTOR BUDGETSSECTOR MINISTRIESSECTOR POLICIESSECTORAL POLICIESSOCIAL BENEFITSSOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURESOCIAL SERVICESSOCIAL WELFARESTRATEGIC PLANSSTRUCTURAL REFORMSTAX BASETAX BURDENTAX COLLECTIONTAX POLICYTAX REVENUETAXPAYERSTOTAL EXPENDITURETOTAL EXPENDITURESTOTAL SPENDINGTRANSPARENCYUNCERTAINTYWAGE EXPENDITURES10.1596/19315
