Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The federal government spends more than $3.7 trillion annually, with more than $1 trillion awarded through contracts, grants, and loans. Improving transparency of spending is essential to improve accountability. Recent federal laws have required increased public information on federal awards and spending. GAO was asked to review current efforts to improve transparency. This report examines (1) transparency efforts under way and (2) the extent to which new initiatives address lessons learned from the Recovery Act. GAO reviewed relevant legislation, executive orders, OMB circulars and guidance, and previous GAO work, including work on Recovery Act reporting. GAO also interviewed officials from OMB, the GAT Board, and other federal entities; government reform advocates; associations representing fund recipients; and a variety of contract and grant recipients."

Download or read book Open Budgets written by Sanjeev Khagram and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation publication Decisions about "who gets what, when, and how" are perhaps the most important that any government must make. So it should not be remarkable that around the world, public officials responsible for public budgeting are facing demands—from their own citizenry, other government officials, economic actors, and increasingly from international sources—to make their patterns of spending more transparent and their processes more participatory. Surprisingly, rigorous analysis of the causes and consequences of fiscal transparency is thin at best. Open Budgets seeks to fill this gap in existing knowledge by answering a few broad questions: How and why do improvements in fiscal transparency and participation come about? How are they sustained over time? When and how do increased fiscal transparency and participation lead to improved government responsiveness and accountability?

Book Synopsis The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act: Background, Overview, and Implementation Issues by :
Download or read book The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act: Background, Overview, and Implementation Issues written by and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On September 26, 2006, President Bush signed S. 2590, the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, into law (P.L. 109-282). In an attempt to expand oversight of federal spending, including earmarks, the new law requires the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to establish a publicly available online database containing information about entities that are awarded federal grants, loans, and contracts. Federal agencies award over one trillion dollars annually in those three categories of financial assistance -- $460 billion in grants, $360 billion in contracts, and $260 billion in direct and guaranteed loans -- accounting for nearly one-third of the federal government's total expenditures and obligations. According to the sponsors of the legislation, the new database will deter "wasteful and unnecessary" spending, since government officials will be less likely to earmark funds for special projects if they know the public could identify how much money was awarded to which organizations, and for what purposes. S. 2590 was a companion bill to H.R. 5060, which also called for the creation of a federal awards database. The bills differed in several respects, however, most notably in that S. 2590 required information on federal contracts to be made available to the public, but H.R. 5060 did not. Because contracts represent over $340 billion in federal awards, the scope of the Senate version was significantly broader. While the intent of the legislation is widely lauded, concern has been expressed by government officials and members of the public that issues surrounding implementation of the proposed database have not been adequately addressed. This report summarizes the legislative history and key provisions of P.L. 109-282 (S. 2590), compares it to H.R. 5060, and discusses challenges that are associated with implementing the new law's proposed database that may prove to be areas for future congressional oversight.

Download or read book Electronic Government written by David A. Powner and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006 (FFATA) is intended to increase the transparency of and accountability for the over $1 trillion that federal agencies award each year in contracts, loans, grants, and other awards. The act required the OMB to establish, no later than Jan. 1, 2008, a publicly accessible Web site containing data on federal awards. This report determined the extent to which: (1) OMB is complying with FFATA requirements to make federal award data available; (2) federal agencies are reporting required award data; and (3) inconsistencies exist between data on the Web site and records at federal agencies. Includes recommendations. Illustrations.
Book Synopsis Guidelines for Public Expenditure Management by : Mr.Jack Diamond
Download or read book Guidelines for Public Expenditure Management written by Mr.Jack Diamond and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 1999-07-01 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, economics training in public finances has focused more on tax than public expenditure issues, and within expenditure, more on policy considerations than the more mundane matters of public expenditure management. For many years, the IMF's Public Expenditure Management Division has answered specific questions raised by fiscal economists on such missions. Based on this experience, these guidelines arose from the need to provide a general overview of the principles and practices observed in three key aspects of public expenditure management: budget preparation, budget execution, and cash planning. For each aspect of public expenditure management, the guidelines identify separately the differing practices in four groups of countries - the francophone systems, the Commonwealth systems, Latin America, and those in the transition economies. Edited by Barry H. Potter and Jack Diamond, this publication is intended for a general fiscal, or a general budget, advisor interested in the macroeconomic dimension of public expenditure management.
