12 The approach to spending review
Selective Spending Review Focus on a pre-agreed set of topics (programmes, processes, agencies) Topics chosen on discretionary or cyclical basis Useful for improving efficiency and effectiveness of spend Integration into budget cycle: Informs annual resource allocation decisions Examples: Canadian Strategic Review (2008,2009,2010) Danish Special Studies Dutch Interdepartmental Policy Reviews Reviews Comprehensive Spending Review Open review process focusing on most important savings options Suitable for quick fiscal consolidation or change in policy direction (e.g. start of new government) Resource intensive and conducted when required (e.g. to set MTEF*) Integration into budget cycle: Helps in setting MTEF / annual budget targets Informs annual resource allocation decisions Examples: UK 2010 CSR (Comprehensive Spending Review) Canadian Strategic & Operating Review (2011) * MTEF : Medium Term Expenditure Framework

13 Prevalence of different types of Spending Review
Expenditure Coverage of spending review in the past 10 years (2018)

14 Best examples of Spending Reviews
Canada Focused on thematic areas of spending, such as support for innovation, and the management of fixed assets. Covered spending across all of government and applied the result for assessing spending The UK In 2017, introduced the concept of a “Public Value Framework” Assessing the likelihood of value being maximised in any given area of spend Improving the process through which inputs are turned into outcomes. Sound planning, citizen engagement, changing cultures and behaviors within government

15 Concluding observations
More and more countries are conducting Spending Reviews but these follow different methodologies given different policy & fiscal objectives and national & political context Focus is moving away from short-term budget cuts to: a medium-term view on efficiency improved programme impact alignment of spending with government priorities Many challenges remain quality and availability of performance information determining a process that provides timely and relevant results for budget decisions Success features include: Linkage to MTEF and/or annual budget targets Guidance on policy & fiscal objectives and assessment criteria Common agreement among key stakeholders on rules, process, objectives Apolitical analysis, even if the final decision process is political
