Issues in analysing allocations for social
services
Central Government
Budget norms - unit of service or unit of beneficiary – differentiated by
conditions
Equalizing funds
Division of sector responsibilities: tertiary services // basic services
Local Government
Local revenue generation – local taxes/VAT, user fees
Allocation from C Govt
Procuring services from C Govt
Vertical gaps – unfunded mandates (exp> revenue)
Horizontal imbalances (mismatch between pop and revenue)
7
Making the best use of public spending
• Costing of new mandates
• Expenditure tracking
• Effectiveness in spending:
Incentives to spend effectively
flexibility (combined w accountability)
allocations based on burden/outcomes not past
spending
Transparency / accountability
• SOCIAL/PARTICIPATORY BUDGETING
8
Right to extensive level of health and education
services and child/family allowances, but …
• Poorer countries don’t have the means to fund
entitlements adequately
• Changes in provision - less linkage between labour
force participation and access to social services for the
family (particularly in health, child care) – erosion of pre
school in LICs. Still strong preference for hospital-based
services
• More choice for the rich and in richer countries
•increasing private provision, tuition based tertiary
services.
• Erosion of value of transfers to families/children lessening
ability to purchase services in the market
