Education Ministry staff ‘swamped’ with paperwork
A progressive budgeting policy used by the Education Ministry has overloaded local administrators with paperwork for which they often lack the expertise, according to a new report, which found the system was less efficient in 2014 than the year before.
Released by the NGO Forum, and funded by Save the Children, the study analysed the Education Ministry’s program-based budget (PB) for 2014 – about $42.5 million of the total $330 million budget.
