    Abstract: Italy is strongly committed to multilateralism, and it uses its convening power as well as expertise in co-operation to make the country a leading voice on issues such as agriculture and cultural heritage. The country's commitment to leaving no one behind is particularly apparent through the focus on gender and disability. However, the country would benefit from reversing the recent decline in official development assistance (ODA), building a stronger and better-skilled workforce, forming a coherent, whole-of-government approach to migration and development, and creating a system to manage for results.

    Abstract: This profile offers a general overview of the Philippine system of budgeting at national level. Special characteristics of the Philippine budget process are examined, such as a commitment to fiscal discipline and the national planning function. The three steps of the annual budget formulation cycle are described: the development of economic assumptions and revenue forecasts; the use of a medium-term expenditure framework to assess the continuing costs of existing programmes; and identifying the resultant “fiscal space” through the Paper on Budget Strategy. The process for allocating resources is then described, including the “Budget Call”, the submission and review of proposals, the role of the central ministry and the line ministries, and finally the role of Congress, constitutional restrictions, and the nature of executive-legislative relations.

    Abstract: En juin 2003, la direction du budget du ministère chilien des finances a demandé à l’OCDE de procéder à un examen de la procédure budgétaire du Chili, selon des modalités analogues à celles qui s’appliquent aux pays membres. L’OCDE a satisfait à cette requête, parce que le Chili a depuis longtemps le statut d’observateur au sein du Groupe de travail des Hauts responsables du budget et en raison du vif intérêt exprimé par les membres du Groupe à l’égard des pratiques budgétaires chiliennes.

    Abstract: This review of budgeting in Australia concentrates on the national government only. The article first discusses Australia’s recent economic and fiscal performance and then focuses on the budget formulation process. After a discussion of the role of the Parliament, the article reviews various aspects of budget implementation and management. The article concludes with a special section on Australia’s efforts to eliminate “red tape” within government. This review was undertaken in September 2007; following the election of a new government in Australia in November 2007, some new policies are highlighted, encompassing budget formulation, processes, accounting and management.

    Abstract: There would appear to be a growing consensus among OECD member countries concerning the merits of adopting accrual accounting in the public sector. Nearly one-third of member countries have adopted full accrual accounting and a number of other member countries have adopted accrual accounting for specific transactions – most frequently for the recording of interest on the public debt and employee pension costs.

    Keywords: Governance ; Singapore
    Abstract: The public finance system of Singapore consists of four “pillars”: the budget sector itself; the Central Provident Fund; the government investment agencies; and various special funds not consolidated into the budget. The budget process is characterised by close interministerial co-operation and the use of constitutional fiscal rules, spending ceilings for ministries (“block budgets”), across-the-board budget extractions (spending cuts), endowment funds, central manpower controls, and continual underspending. Parliament has a limited role. The President of the Republic has an important role as “fiscal guardian”. The article describes these particular features of the Singapore budget process, and discusses other elements of budget implementation and government management such as the organisational structure of the government, the execution of budget appropriations, personnel management, financial management and reporting, and performance and results initiatives.

Les pays membres ont traditionnellement appliqué la comptabilité sur la base des paiements dans le secteur public, mais ils ont connu dans ces dernières années une tendance forte les amenant à se tourner vers la comptabilité sur la base des droits constatés. Environ la moitié des pays membres ont adopté à des degrés divers la comptabilité sur la base des droits constatés. Les tableaux indiquent de façon détaillée quelles sont les méthodes pratiquées en la matière dans chaque pays membre. Il est possible d’apporter quelques commentaires généraux sur l’utilisation de la comptabilité et la budgétisation sur la base des droits constatés par les pays membres...

Sur le plan économique, c’est le document primordial dans la mesure où il répartit une part appréciable (plus de la moitié dans certains pays membres) du Produit intérieur brut d’une nation. C’est également le document programmatique majeur car c’est dans le budget que les gouvernements fixent concrètement leurs priorités par le biais de la répartition des masses financières. Il constitue le document primordial du point de vue de la gestion puisque c’est dans le contexte du budget que les aspects opérationnels essentiels des ministères et des agences sont déterminés. Le budget représente en outre l’architecture de base des décisions et des prises de responsabilité au sein du gouvernement. Le dessein de cette archi tecture a une incidence signif icative sur la performance gouvernementale dans son ensemble...

L’OCDE a répondu favorablement à cette requête en reconnaissant que le Brésil est un observateur bien établi auprès du Groupe de travail des hauts responsables du budget de l’OCDE et un partenaire clé du programme global de l’OCDE de coopération avec les pays non membres. En raison du temps limité alloué à la réalisation de cette étude, il a été décidé que le rapport n’aborderait pas le système de fédéralisme budgétaire du Brésil.

    Abstract: The budget is the most fundamental and important document of governments. It is the key economic document in that it allocates a significant share of a nation’s gross domestic product, over half in some OECD member countries. It is the key program policy document in that governments establish their policy priorities in concrete terms in the budget through the allocation of funding. It is the key management document in that the basic operational aspects of government ministries and agencies are established in the context of the budget. Furthermore, the budget provides the basic architecture for overall decision-making and accountability in government. This architectural design has a significant impact on overall government performance.

    Abstract: Cash and accruals represent two end points on a spectrum of possible accounting and budgeting bases. The cash end of the spectrum has traditionally been applied by OECD member countries for their public sector activities. In recent years there has been a major trend towards the accruals end of the spectrum in member countries. About half of member countries have adopted accruals to one degree or another. The tables at the end of this paper provide details on practices in individual member countries. Several general comments can be made about the use of accruals in member countries...

    Abstract: Depuis le début des années 90, la situation budgétaire des pays membres de l’OCDE s’est améliorée régulièrement chaque année, passant d’un déficit de 5 % du PIB pour l’ensemble des pays membres en 1993 à un équilibre parfait (sans déficit, ni excédent) en l’an 2000. L’année passée, les pays membres ont enregistré un déficit de 1 % du PIB. Le tableau 1 expose l’équilibre financier des administrations publiques dans quelques pays membres de l’OCDE. Il veut montrer l’évolution historique dans les pays membres : l’assainissement des finances publiques est une entreprise de longue haleine dont les résultats sont précaires. Naguère, plusieurs pays membres de l’OCDE pensaient qu’ils enregistreraient des excédents budgétaires longtemps encore, que l’époque des déficits était révolue. Il n’en a rien été : la série des excédents s’est avérée très éphémère dans de nombreux pays.

    Abstract: Le processus budgétaire de l’administration fédérale des États-Unis est différent de celui des autres pays membres de l’OCDE. La raison en est la division rigoureuse des pouvoirs qui caractérise le régime constitutionnel américain de même qu’un long parcours historique marqué par l’ajout successif de nouvelles institutions. Le processus budgétaire présidentiel a commencé à se développer au début du siècle précédent. Il a été codifié pour la première fois en 1921 dans une loi intitulée Budget and Accounting Act, laquelle exigeait que le Président soumette au Congrès un budget pour le gouvernement et créait le Bureau of the Budget, devenu depuis l’Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Dans les années 70, le Congrès a modifié son propre processus budgétaire au moyen d’une loi intitulée Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act. Adoptée en 1974, cette loi créait la résolution budgétaire du Congrès et établissait le Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Une nouvelle institution s’est ajoutée au cours des années 1980 dans le but de contrôler le déficit. Il s’agit de la loi intitulée Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, connue sous le nom de Loi Gramm-Rudman-Hollings qui a été adoptée en 1985. Elle a été modifiée en profondeur en 1990 par la Budget Enforcement Act...

    Abstract: From the early 1990s, the fiscal position of OECD member countries improved steadily each year, from a deficit of 5% of GDP for member countries as whole in 1993 to a perfect balance in the year 2000, i.e. neither a deficit nor a surplus. In 2001, member countries experienced a deficit of 1% of GDP. Table 1 depicts the general government financial balances of selected OECD member countries. This goes to show the historical pattern in member countries: achieving fiscal consolidation is a slow process and successes in fiscal consolidation can quickly dissipate. A very short time ago, several OECD member countries believed that they were on a long-term track for fiscal surpluses; the era of deficits had been overcome. This did not turn out to be the case; surpluses turned out to be a very short-lived phenomenon for many countries.

    Abstract: The budgetary process in the United States federal government is different from that in other OECD member countries. This is a consequence of the strict separation of powers that characterises the American constitutional system and of a long historical development in which new layers of institutional innovation were successively added to existing ones. The presidential budgetary process started to develop in the beginning of the previous century. Its first codification took place in the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, which required that the President submit a budget for the government to Congress and created the Bureau of the Budget, now the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). In the 1970s, Congress changed its own budgetary process through the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974, which created the Congressional Budget Resolution and established the Congressional Budget Office. Another layer of innovation was added during the 1980s with the aim of controlling the deficit. This began with the Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985, commonly known as the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Act, which in 1990 was fundamentally amended by the Budget Enforcement Act...

    Abstract: Le processus d’élaboration du budget se déroule, aux Pays-Bas, en deux temps bien distincts. Le premier prend place au moment où le nouveau gouvernement entre en fonction et adopte une politique budgétaire pour l’ensemble de son mandat. Cette procédure est ainsi réalisée en termes explicites ; elle n’est donc pas une déclaration générale d’intentions. Le second temps se déroule par la suite à un rythme annuel, au fur et à mesure où la politique budgétaire d’ensemble du gouvernement est traduite en termes opérationnels, pour toutes les activités de l’État...

    Abstract: The budget formulation process in the Netherlands operates in two very distinct phases. The first phase occurs when a new government takes power and it establishes its overall budgetary policy for its term of office. This is done in explicit terms, rather than being a general statement of intent. The second phase then occurs annually, as the government’s overall budgetary policy is translated into operational terms for all of the government’s various activities...

    Abstract: La dette publique du Canada exprimée en proportion du PIB, qui était inférieure à la moyenne des pays Membres de l’OCDE au début des années 80, a augmenté par la suite, culminant à 97.6 % en 1995. Seules l’Italie, à l’intérieur du G- 7, et la Grèce ainsi que la Belgique, dans la communauté de l’OCDE, avaient une dette plus élevée en proportion de leur PIB. Au plan de la gestion budgétaire, le point tournant est survenu en 1994. On a compris alors que la situation financière était en voie de se muer en crise, et que des mesures rigoureuses s’imposaient. Aujourd’hui, le Canada enregistre un excédent budgétaire et rembourse sa dette. Le présent rapport retrace le fil de ces événements.

    Abstract: Canada’s level of indebtedness, as a percentage of GDP, increased from a level lower than the average for OECD Member countries in the early 1980s to a high of 97.6% in 1995. This was a level of debt exceeded only by Italy among G7 nations and Belgium and Greece among the wider OECD community. Fiscal management reached a breaking point in 1994. It was recognised that the fiscal situation had reached crisis proportions and strong corrective measures were needed. Today, Canada is enjoying a budget surplus and is repaying debt. This paper surveys these developments.

    Abstract: Alors qu’elle bénéficiait des plus forts excédents budgétaires de tous les pays Membres de l’OCDE à la fin des années 80, la Suède a enregistré ensuite les déficits budgétaires les plus élevés de tous les pays Membres de l’OCDE. Ces énormes déficits se sont accompagnés d’une hausse massive de la dette publique. En cinq ans à peine, le niveau de la dette brute s’est accru de moitié. Cependant, vers la fin des années 90, l’équilibre budgétaire a été rétabli et maintenant elle bénéficie de nouveau d’excédents importants.

    Abstract: From enjoying the largest budget surpluses of any OECD Member country in the late 1980s, Sweden went into having the largest budget deficits of any OECD Member country in the early 1990s, which were accompanied by a massive increase in government debt. In a span of just five years, the level of debt had nearly doubled. However, by the late 1990s, the budget had been brought back to balance and Sweden is now enjoying significant surpluses again.
