Treasury’s move to track public spending likely to increase discipline in budget implementation

Last week, the IFMIS Department of the National Treasury said it would in the course of March launch a system that will give the Cabinet and Principal Secretaries a real time view of how all Ministries and State agencies spend their budgetary allocations.

This is part of the Government’s efforts to streamline public finance management that started with IFMIS Re-engineering in 2011.
