EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Budget for 1388 continues to reflect the Government priorities of promoting economic development and growth and improving social-economic conditions of the Afghan people. The prioritization process and necessary budget reforms have focused on obtaining the results for the 1388 budget and the medium term. This current budget and medium time prioritization framework have aligned their allocations in consistent with the recently finalized Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS). The ANDS, which was approved by the Government of Afghanistan and presented at the Paris Conference in June 2008, is the blueprint for the development of Afghanistan over the next five years and outlines the government’s strategy for achieving its long term development vision, including the Afghanistan Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the benchmarks of the Afghanistan Compact. The ANDS emphasized that security, macroeconomic stability and growth, human and infrastructure development and partnership between the government, the civil society, and donor community are the key over-arching requirements for poverty reduction. In addition, the ANDS identified improving governance and building institutional capacity as important objectives in the medium term. Managing public expenditures in a transparent and accountable manner is important and perhaps even central for public sector good governance.
The Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) implementation cycle as outlined in the ANDS document consists of four steps: a) Program design/redesign, b) Coordinated project implementation, c) Evaluation & new priority selection, and d) Policy development adjustments.
The Government has introduced a number of new institutional structures and mechanisms to support the timely and effective implementation of the ANDS. These mechanisms will be used to address coordination of implementation, results management, monitoring, identify bottlenecks, progress reports and align sector-wide programs and projects to the ANDS outcomes and objectives.
Medium-term Fiscal Strategy (1388-92) The main objective of the fiscal policy of the Government is to maintain macroeconomic and fiscal stability, poverty reduction, and sustained economic growth. Over the past few years the sound fiscal policy adapted by the Government enabled the Government to making more effective use of available public resources and address the needs associated with the volatile domestic environment. Over the past few years the focus has also been diverted to investing in improving the quality of service delivery.
The Government has embarked on the medium-term fiscal strategy to ensure that fiscal stance is sustainable and will help to promote long-term growth prospects and assist in poverty reduction in the current global financial turmoil. The macroeconomic environment will be designed in a way that can facilitate the development of private sector and making it the real engine of sustained economic growth.
The main objective of the fiscal strategy over the medium-term is to ensure that domestic resources are adequate enough to finance the operating budget and the recurrent cost associated with the gross capital formation of the Government. The development of Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) called Afghanistan National Development
4
Strategy (ANDS) has paved the way to prioritize the available domestic resources and donor financing in the appropriate context.
These developments underscore the continuing need to operate prudent fiscal policy and maintain a strong fiscal position in the long-run. The Government is also taking appropriate measures to increase domestic revenue. This can be done by broadening the revenue base, strengthening the revenue administration and audit capacity, tax enforcement mechanism, and increase in compliance rate that will promote revenue generation avoiding any distortion. The Government is committed to strengthen the budget formulation and execution procedures to assist the implementation of ANDS and increasing public confidence. The Government will work towards increasing the transparency of public finances by timely production of fiscal reports.
The first stage of the fiscal planning tools which is Medium-term Fiscal Framework (MTFF) developed in 2005 was a successful exercise. The MTFF outlines the fiscal frameworks based on projections for broad fiscal aggregates that are consistent with key macroeconomic variables and fiscal targets. Broad fiscal aggregates (i.e. revenue and expenditures) are projected based on macroeconomic variables (i.e. growth and inflation) donors’ pledges and commitments, and policy measures. The adoption of MTFF served as a platform of confidence on the Government operations and played a key role in securing donor financing for the Afghanistan compact in London conference on Afghanistan in late 1385 (2005/06).
1388 Revenues and Expenditures In 1388, domestic revenues are expected to increase at a healthy pace of 26 percent over the 1387 target. The total revenues are expected to be Afs 50,600 million (USD 973 million). Taxes on income, profit, property and capital gains are expected to increase to Afs 10,315 million in 1388 from Afs 9,696 million which is an increase of about 6 percent compared to 1387. Customs duties are expected to increase by 7 percent. Similarly, domestic taxes on goods and services are expected to increase by 235 percent. The medium-term looks promising given the ambitious reforms and new policies on revenues. Domestic revenue receipts are a key target under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility program that the Government of Afghanistan is implementing in partnership with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). These medium term projections of domestic revenue have been formulated in collaboration with the IMF and form the basis of the revenue forecasts for the MTFF. The Government is targeting to reach fiscal sustainability over the medium term. Estimates are based on the following policy assumptions to be carried out in 1388.
The overall expenditures in the Core Budget are planned to be Afs 148,883 million (US$ 2,882 million), a decrease of 18 percent, over the 1387 Mid-Year Review. The reason for the decline is the exclusion of carry forward projects of 1387. The increase in the operating expenditures reflects the growing need for core sectors such security and education. In the operating budget, the security sector (47 percent) and the Ministry of Education (15 percent) continue to absorb significant shares of expenditures.

The operating budget will be increased from Afs 73.8 billion (USD 1,476 million) in 1387 to Afs 93.9 billion (USD 1,807 million) in 1388. The operating budget is 22 percent higher in 1388 compared to 1387. The operating budget as a share of GDP, however, will increase to about 13.6 percent in 1388 from about 12.2 percent in 1387 due to the slower growth of nominal GDP. The share of wages in 1388 including the security sector (Afghan National Army and Afghan National Police) in the operating budget is currently about 70 percent. The total core development is Afs 59.0 billion (USD1,135.7 million).There are a number of priority projects in ‘projects in the pipeline’, which need donor funding. If donor funding is available, these projects can be added to the Approved Budget during the year.
Core Budget The Core Budget for FY 1388 is Afs 153,011.63 million (USD 2,942.53 million) which consists for AFS 93.953 million (USD 1807 million) Operating Budget and Afs 59,056 million (USD 1,135.7 million) Core Development Budget. In the year 1387 it was Afs 186,207 million (USD 3,724 million). The total Operating Budget for 1387 was Afs 73,829 million (USD 1,477 million) and Core Development Budget of Afs 112,378 million (USD 2,247.5 million). The Core budget for 1388 decreased by 22 percent compared to 1387. Operating budget has an increase of 22 percent while the Core Development decreased by 50 percent.

has increased by about 22 percent. The major causes of increase are the followings.
Size and pay for ANA ANA will increase by 23,500 in FY 1388. In FY 1387 the total size of ANA was 86,000 which will now become 109,314 which cause a noticeable increase in Operating Budget. Secondly, ANA will observe an increase of pay of Afs 1,000 per head in FY1388.
Size and pay of School Teachers 12,500 new school teachers will be hired in FY 1388. Secondly, Afs 1,300 increase per head, which took place in the last ten months of FY1387, will continue through out FY 1388 which is one of the major causes of increase in Operating Budget for FY 1388.
Salaries of University Professors Increase in pay of university lecturers based on revised higher education law and increase of number of lecturers is another reason causing and increase in overall Operating Budget.
Salaries of Judges Increase in pay of Judges caused Afs 390 million increase in Operating Budget for FY 1388.
Other than these major changes, formation of the two new budget entities, Legal Training Centre and Afghanistan High Atomic Energy Commission has caused an increase in total Operating Budget.

Key Budget Reforms The recent budget reforms that have been introduced by the Ministry of Finance are aimed at achieving results for government spending and good governance. The Government intends to improve performance by providing results-orientation to policy making and prioritization. As part of this process, the Government has taken efforts to develop a multi-year perspective in strategic resource allocation for the period 1387-91. To develop such multi-year prioritization and turn the annual budget into a more policy-oriented tool, the Ministry of Finance has introduced a number of technical instruments and initiatives. These include: (a) the introduction of a medium term budgeting framework (MTBF), (b) program budgeting in key ministries, (c) provincial budgeting in a number of provinces, (d) costing of sector strategies, and (e) project template for the development budget. In the medium term, these initiatives are expected to produce the desired results not only in terms of linking budget allocations and ANDS, but also in terms of improving the overall service delivery throughout the country. To develop this prioritization framework, the Ministry of Finance and the Oversight Committee discussed extensively the prioritization approach for public expenditures among sectors and ministries. These extensive discussions and consultations have led to prioritization and allocation of resources (both domestic resources and donor assistance) among sectors and ministries for the period 1387-91. The process also recommended shifts in resource allocations from the past to achieve Government objectives and ANDS priorities.
To create strong ownership of the Government in the prioritization process and allocation of resources among sectors consistent with the Government-led development strategy, the Government conducted a number of high level meetings including several Cabinet meetings. The strong collaboration between the Ministry of Finance and the ANDS team in aligning budget allocations with Government/ANDS priorities has produced strong ownership by the Government. As a result of this process, for the first time, the Government is able to prioritize budget allocations to implement the priorities in the ANDS.
POLICY FRAMEWORK FOR BUDGETING
Afghanistan Development Strategy (ANDS) The Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) of the Government with the support from the international community aims to address the major challenges of the country. These challenges include security, governance, and the economic development needs of Afghanistan. The ANDS is closely linked with policy objectives to reach the Millennium Development Goals by 2020. The ANDS which is based on an assessment of current social and economic conditions, offer clear intermediate objectives, and identifies actions that must be taken to achieve these goals.
In line with this strategy, the Government has initiated policies to reduce poverty through a stable and growing economy, efficient and able political and democratic institutions, human development and security throughout the country. Despite the full commitment of the Government and the considerable assistance from the international community, it is too ambitious to achieve all ANDS goals in the next five years. As a result, it is essential
8
that the Government, with support from the donors, prioritize and sequence some of the policy objectives. Based on this process, the Government intends to align such prioritization process with the national budget and its allocations to different sectors. This prioritization process needs an institutional mechanism that will include the Afghan people, the Government, civil society, and the international community.
ANDS Implementation The Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) implementation cycle as outlined in the ANDS document consists of four steps: a) Program design/redesign, b) Coordinated project implementation, c) Evaluation & new priority selection, and d) Policy development adjustments.
The Government has introduced a number of new institutional structures to support the timely and effective implementation of the ANDS. This has included the establishment of the Government Coordination Committee (GCC), the ANDS Coordination of Implementation and Development Unit in the Ministry of Finance and the Monitoring and Evaluation Unit in the Ministry of Economy.
The ANDS is largely based on 17 sector strategies and 6 Cross-Cutting Issues, with well defined objectives and proposed for projects and programs to be implemented over the next five years. The existing governmental institutional structure of ministries and agencies does not generally correspond closely to the coverage of specific sectors. As a result virtually all of the sector strategies will require significant inter – ministerial cooperation and integrated action if these strategies are to be successfully implemented.
As a result, the Government is establishing Sectoral Inter–Ministerial Committees (IMCs), each of which will be primarily responsible for coordination of implementation of the ANDS Sector Strategies and is comprised of the ministers from relevant ministries. These IMCs, co-chaired by MoF, will report to the President and the Cabinet through the GCC and their work will be supported by ANDS units in MoF and MoEC. The 17 Inter-Ministerial Committees will be used to address coordination of implementation, results management, monitoring, identify bottlenecks, progress reports and align sector-wide programs and projects to the ANDS outcomes and objectives.
Growth Strategy A credible growth strategy is the backbone of the ANDS. Much of the growth observed in the past several years since 2001 were mainly due to the recovery from large public investment in reconstruction activities and donor assistance. These factors cannot be expected to continue for too long. The challenge is to find new sources of growth especially led by the private sector. A key objective of the ANDS is to establish a secure economic environment in which it will be possible to attract sufficient levels of investment and which will encourage the employment of human, financial and natural resources in the most productive ways possible. Key elements of the growth strategy include the following.
• Rural development and commercialization of agriculture • Private sector development and economic infrastructure
o Better infrastructure (including roads, irrigation, airports) o Higher electricity generation and distribution o Access to land and simplifying procedures
9
o Access to finance and strengthening financial sector including increased access to credit and financial services\
o Establishing industrial parks, which provides immediate access to security, land, and infrastructure (power, water, transport, etc)
• Improved human development (education, health care, social protection)
• Strengthening governance and institutions • Administrative reform and capacity building
The Government has been committed to implement growth inducing programs and projects as started in the ANDS and allocate sufficient resources to implement these programs. The medium term budget framework, which was approved by the Cabinet, has reflected the ANDS priorities.
Poverty Reduction Plan The ANDS shows a detailed poverty diagnostic work, which was done under the Government’s National Risk and Vulnerability Assessment (NRVA) in 2007. The assessment shows the poverty rate of 42 percent or 12 million people living below the poverty line, with incomes of about US$14 per month per capita. The assessment also shows that food poverty was estimated to be around 45 percent. This consists of people who were unable to purchase food which can guarantee the minimum required food intake of 2100 calories per day. There is a significant difference in poverty levels between provinces and between urban and rural areas.
Poverty levels differ significantly between provinces. Poverty headcount rates vary from around 10 percent to more than 70 percent, with poverty more severe in the Northeast, Central Highlands and parts of the Southeast. Entire provinces such as Daikundi, Badakhshan, Zabul, and Paktika represent large pockets of poverty.
The Government has set ambitious targets including reducing poverty levels to half by 2020, which is also one of the MDG targets. The Government policies in the medium term are not only aimed at ensuring robust growth, which is a necessary condition for poverty reduction, but also aimed at quality of growth in terms of employment generation, rural development, significant spending on education and health. The results of high growth should eventually lead to a corresponding decline in poverty and employment regeneration. Poverty analysis done by the World Bank using NRVA 2005, shows that the poverty level which was at 42 percent in 1386 is expected to decline to 28.4 percent in 1391. The projection is based on robust economic growth and no change in inequality.
To reduce poverty, ANDS has the following policy approach.
• Promoting pro-poor growth
• Promoting pro-poor budgeting
• Allocating adequate resources to the poorest areas

• Providing the balanced support to the Kuchis, rural and urban poor
• Improving donor coordination and aid effectiveness
• Strengthening the capacity for data collection and poverty analysis
• Building partnership between the Government and NGOs.
Security Sector Strategy Security and stability in the country is essential for economic growth and poverty reduction. Afghanistan still faces a number of serious security challenges. Large parts of the country hinder the process of development and building government institutions because of the unstable security situation. The Government if fully committed to, and is giving high priority , to successfully: (1) implementing an integrated and comprehensive national security policy and strategy; (2) building a robust security sector reform program; (3) strengthening civil and military operations and coordination; (4) increasing the role of security forces in counter-narcotics activities; and (5) strengthening the civilian components of security entities.
The strategy includes an increase in uniformed tashkeel over the medium-term to meet the security needs of the country and to strengthen Afghan capacity to handle any security breaches. In agreement with the international community, it is planned to increase the size of the ANA from its current strength of around 86,000 personnel in 1387 to 134,000 personnel by end 1389. Meanwhile, ANP strength will be same and remain constant at 82,180 in 1388, which will be able to effectively meet the security needs of the country. This has huge fiscal and budget implications for the country. It is expected that the international community will bear the significant cost of the security strategy for the foreseeable future. In spite of this, the security sector is expected to be increasingly funded by Government resources and through the national budget. The Government and donors are expected to spend about 25 percent of all resources (both core and external budgets) on security.
Rural Development and Agricultural Transformation The ANDS long term strategic vision is that the transformation of agriculture is central to poverty reduction in Afghanistan. This would require the progressive market-orientation of agriculture, intensification of input use and specialization and diversification in production. The key policy and institutional anchors for transformation would be liberalization of land and agriculture inputs and products markets, access to credit, agriculture research and extension to facilitate the wider use of improved inputs and dissemination of technologies. Such transformation would pave the way for the improvement in the quality of life through increased incomes and delivery of services. As part of this strategy, the Government has started the comprehensive agriculture and rural development program (CARD). The CARD program represents the Government’s approach to providing diversified income sources, through income support, direct provision of assets, skills training and market opportunities, and is crucial to providing alternatives to producing narcotics. The principal program among the 15 programs of the CARD is the National Solidarity Program (NSP), the Government’s main community development program. Other programs include the National Food Security Program, the Horticulture Program, the Livestock Program, the National Area Based Development
11
Program, the Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Program, and the Rural Enterprise Program. In the total budget, about 9-10 percent is expected to be spent in this sector in the medium term.
Private Sector Development and Economic Infrastructure The ANDS strategic objective is to enable the private sector to lead Afghanistan’s development within a competitive market-based economy in which the Government is the policy maker and regulator of the economy, not its competitor. The establishment of a strong enabling environment for a competitive private sector is an on-going effort by both the Government and donors. Prioritization and corporatization of state owned enterprises is an on-going program that is on schedule. Another important component of the private sector development strategy is the attempt to encourage increased private sector investment by creating investor friendly regulatory frameworks for private sector operations in the development of natural resources and infrastructure.
In the area of infrastructure, key areas include energy, mining, water resources, transport, information and communication technology, and urban development. Major energy, water resources, transport, and mining projects have been started in various parts of the country. The Government with assistance from various donors has made significant progress in implementing big transport projects including civil aviation, information technology, and urban development. These include the ring road, link roads to neighboring countries, upgrading of all major airports including Kabul, Herat, and Mazar-i-Sharif. In the medium term, the Government has a commitment to spend significant resources on the infrastructure sector. Because of the need for huge resources, 35 percent of the total budget is expected to be spent on this sector in the medium term.
Human Development The post reconstruction process has put priority on reviving the provision of services to the general public. School enrolments have swelled at all levels of education and basic health services have reached the majority of the population in the country. Afghanistan, however, has a long way to go in this area to reach satisfactory indicators. Life expectancy is about 46 years, which is the lowest life expectancy outside sub-Saharan Africa. Infant and child mortality rates are amongst the highest in the world. The literacy rate is only about 36 percent in recent years. All these important welfare indicators have to be significantly improved.
The progress so far in this area includes a massive enrolment initiative and a seven-fold increase in the number of teachers since 2001. There are today more than six million children and adults receiving education. Similarly, technical and vocational education at the secondary level through public institutions has seen a 10-fold increase in the last five years with nearly 10,500 students enrolled. In the health sector, similar achievements have been made. The basic package of health services has reached 82 percent of the population by 2007 9 percent 2003. Similarly, child immunization has increased several folds.
The Government’s strategy in this area includes a further increase in school enrollment of both boys and girls and an improvement in the quality of education. Construction of university campuses and recruitment of qualified professors for higher education are some of the other priorities for the education sector. In the health sector, the strategy includes an extension of the basic package of health services and provision of an essential package of hospital services. The Government intends to spend about 18-20 percent of the total budget. on this sector (including social protection) in the medium term.

MACROECONOMIC AND FISCAL OUTLOOK
Global and Regional Outlook The global economy is experiencing one of the toughest times since the great depression of 1930s. The recent financial turmoil caused by the subprime crisis in the US has seriously undermined global economic expansion. Advanced economies such as United States, Western Europe, and Japan, where financial markets are highly integrated, have been badly affected by the crisis. Starting in August 2007, the U.S. subprime mortgage market was disrupted by the slowdown in the housing boom as interest rates increased to combat accelerating inflation. The emerging and developing economies such as India, China, and Brazil have been less affected by the global financial distress. Global growth is estimated to slow to 3.4 percent in 2008 which is 1.8 percentage points lower than the growth recorded in 2007. Global growth for 2009 is projected to slow to just 0.5 percent. A recovery is projected to start late in 2009. Inflation both in advanced economies and emerging and developing economies is anticipated to slow down considerably in 2009 after a significant spike in 2008 due to high commodity and oil prices.
South Asia’s growth is expected to decline from 8.6 percent in 2007 to 7.1 percent in 2008 and to 6.7 percent in 2009 while inflation is expected to reach 11.8 percent in 2008 from 5.5 percent in 2007 and is expected to slow down to 9.2 percent in 2009.
Afghanistan’s economic context and outlook Over the past several years, Afghanistan has made significant progress towards strengthening the foundation for macroeconomic stability. Progress has also been made in the area of political and institutional development which has in turn facilitated strong economic growth. With political and institutional structures in place, structural reforms are needed to pave the way for a sound economic environment. The security situation, however, has hampered the Government’s efforts in creating a sound economic environment in which the private sector can flourish. Building on these gains, the ANDS
14
submitted to the donor conference held in Paris in June 2008 - provides a strategic medium term vision to foster sustainable growth, create jobs, and tackle poverty. GDP per capita has grown progressively from US$ 157 in 1381 to US$ 450 in 1388 and reaching to about US$800 in 1392.
Afghanistan’s economy is characterized by the high dependence on agriculture, which makes the economy vulnerable to weather-related shocks. Because of adverse weather shocks, the agriculture sector has experienced negative growth rates in the recent past including for 1387. This led to a decline in the overall growth rate.
Real GDP growth in 1386 was 11.5 percent. Available information suggests that GDP growth will be reduced to about 3.4 percent in 1387 due to a drought-induced decline in agricultural production. Inflation, as measured by the consumer price index for Kabul, was about 13 percent (period average) in 1386, as a slower increase in rent prices largely offset a faster rise in food and tremendous increase in energy prices. The spike in food prices in 1387 together with significant increases in the oil prices earlier this year is projected to push headline inflation to about 28.2 percent in 1387. However, non-food inflation is likely to remain around 10 percent for the year.
Due to limited exposure to foreign capital markets, the recent global financial crisis will have little direct impact on the Afghan economy. However there are secondary effects from the 2008 economic turbulence, including a strengthening dollar that will impact on the purchasing power of non-dollar aid flows, and lower aid pledges as donor governments switch expenditures towards their own domestic priorities.
Looking ahead, Afghanistan’s medium-term prospects are broadly favorable. Based on preliminary projections, agricultural growth is expected to return to its historical trend, while telecommunications, transport, and trade should continue to expand at a strong pace, and construction activity should increase steadily, albeit more slowly than in recent years. Further growth prospects are predicated on the emergence of new economic activities, assuming increased efficiency in the public sector, the design of an appropriate regulatory framework for private sector activity, and improvements in human capital and infrastructure.
Real GDP growth is expected to reach 7.4 percent in 1388 with a slight slippage due to the agricultural sector’s slowdown in 1389 to reach 7.5 percent and deteriorate further to 7.1 percent in 1390 and to 6.9 percent in 1392. Assuming continued sound monetary and fiscal policies, inflation is expected to decline to 6 percent in 1388. With the projected decline in oil prices, inflation is expected to decline further to about 5 percent by 1392. With tight monetary policy measures, the exchange rate is expected to remain stable at around the Afs 52 per US dollar.

Fiscal Policy and Outlook The Government's expenditure programs are planned within a pragmatic and sustainable medium term macroeconomic and fiscal framework. Enhancing revenue mobilization, which is part of this framework, is a necessary condition in order to provide the resources required to support the implementation of the ANDS, to fulfill the Millennium Development Goals and finance the provision of essential public services and build the infrastructure required to sustain pro-poor economic growth. Thus the need for increased revenue to ensure provision of adequate and quality public services especially for the poor cannot be overemphasized. Over the past four years, the Government performed well in the collection of domestic revenues; however, revenues have not been fully sufficient to cover operating expenditures. This is despite the fact that the Government has taken numerous steps towards reforming and strengthening tax policies and administration.
With a commitment to reach fiscal sustainability (covering increasing operating budget with domestic revenues), the Government entered into the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF) with the IMF. Given this commitment, the Government has to make some hard choices in allocating resources among sectors and budgetary units. The Government’s fiscal policy approach also ensures that Government expenditures are aligned with the ANDS priority sectors of security, infrastructure, agriculture and rural development, and education. Disciplined public expenditure management is a key guiding principle of the Government of Afghanistan.
The short-term expenditure allocations outlook for 1388 and beyond looks very challenging and will influence the medium term fiscal path. 1387 has seen a series of emerging expenditure pressures, which may spill over into the medium-term. The recent global food price increases and growing shortages of essential commodities are likely to keep the pressure on the prices of essential commodities in the short to medium term. The cost of addressing security concerns continues to escalate. While most of these costs are borne by the external budget, decisions to increase the size of the Afghan National Army (ANA) to 134,000 by 1389 will substantially augment the size of the operating budget.
The earlier objective of achieving fiscal sustainability in the operating budget by 1391 now looks likely to be unachievable even in 1393. If there are no cutbacks in growth of the teacher workforce and public administration reforms in particular, donor support through the recurrent costs window is needed until the country reaches full sustainability. The costs associated with the Presidential election due in 1388 together with the Parliamentary election in 1389 are projected to put additional fiscal pressures on the Budget. The following are some of the emerging fiscal pressures over the medium term.
16
• Size of the ANA: In agreement with the international community, it is planned to increase the size of the ANA from its current strength of around 109,000personnel (which is above the approved strength 70,000 to which the Government will provide salary and food) to 134,000 personnel by end 1389 (2010/11). This will impose costs directly to the operating budget for food and accommodation. The additional cost (salary and food) of additional personnel in 1389 is estimated to be Afs 3,814 million in 1388, Afs 7,679 million in 1389, Afs 9,520 million in 1390 and rise to a steady annual cost of Afs 9,884 million from 1392 onwards. The Ministry of Finance has already provide its assurance that it will only fund salary and food and for up to a maximum of 70,000 ANA personnel. The additional amount would only be accommodated in the budget of Ministry of Defense based on the firm commitment by a donor to support the additional troops. The ANA also receives a top-up from Combined Security Transitional Command-Afghanistan (CSTC-A) which is Afs 5.04 billion in 1388 and reaching Afs 6.15 billion in 1392 which will be provided to ANA personnel up on the receipt of written commitment from the donor to support it. Currently the overwhelming majority of operating and equipment costs are met through the external budget. However donors plan to shift this cost to the Government budget slowly, which will put considerable strain on the objective of achieving fiscal sustainability in the medium term.
• Public Administration Reform for the Non-uniform staff - Pay & Grading
(P&G):. The Pay and Grading changes are part of a process of developing a better civil service, with remuneration tied more to qualification and performance than to seniority and nepotism. Reforms was planned to be started in 1385 and will continue until 1391 where they are expected to be fully implemented. Now the plan is to start the implementation in 1388 and implement it in 1391. There would be two tiers of civil servants in the P&G. Tier one, non-teachers civil servants and tier two teachers. The plan for non-teachers civil servants is that P&G would be implemented in four years starting from 1388 and ending in 1391. It is planned that 31,000 (21 percent) civil servants will enter P&G scheme in 1388, followed by 62,000 (43 percent), 97,000 (67 percent), and 144,000 (100 percent) in 1389-91, respectively. Priority during the process would be given to the already PRR positions. For tier two, which will be teachers, the Cabinet approved plan for the implementation of P&G for teachers was two years but now due to limited room in the budget, the teachers’ P&G would be implemented in three years. The plan may change subject to availability of room in the budget. In 1388, 56,000(33%) teachers would enter the P&G scheme, followed by 33 percent in 1389, and 34 percent in 1390. There would also be addition of 12,500 teachers under the P&G scheme from 1389-91. The net cost of P&G scheme is assumed to Afs 2.5 billion, Afs 5.5 billion, Afs 9.7 billion, Afs 13.16 billion, and Afs 13.78 billion in 1388-92, respectively .The first group of civil servants is expected to commence on a new classification and the reward standards by the end of 1387 and start getting the P&G salary from the beginning of 1388. The remaining staff – and all teachers, including new appointees – will be transferred over during 1388-1391, with the full effect being visible in 1392. It should also be noted that Afs 500 million has been allocated for the new PRR from 1388-92.
• Judiciary Pay reform: Pay reform has undergone for the Supreme Court which will increase the average monthly salary for professional staff from Afs
17
9,150($183) at the beginning of 1387 to Afs 26,550($531) at the beginning of 1388. The total number of judiciary officials that come under the Pay reform process are 2,081. The total cost of judiciary Pay reform for 1387 amounts to Afs 625 million while the cost for 1388 is projected to be around Afs 665 million and will continue
• Pension: Pension payments currently represent a small portion of the total annual budget. The pension receipt category represents civilian pensioners, military pensioners, pensions to the disabled and pensions to martyrs. The average annual pension per person per year is Afs 22,500 and Afs 47,500 for the civilian pensioners and military pensioners respectively. Afs 650 per person goes to disabled and the families of martyrs annually. The annual projected cost of pensions for 1387 amount to Afs 2.9 billion while it will increase to Afs 3.8 billion in 1388 as more and more civil servants and military officials retire. Based on Presidential decree, there is also additional pressure of Afs 750 million for the pension of pre-1382 military retirees to be paid an increase of 75 percent on top of their existing pension rate starting from 1388. It will be paid until the new pension law is enactive.
Comprehensive reform of the pension system remains a priority of the Government. Most recently, the Government has developed a comprehensive reform strategy and initiated the process of drafting new pension regulations. The Government formed a senior steering committee on pension reform tasked to oversee the process of the reform policy formulation whilst a legal drafting process was initiated by the end of 2007. The revised pension scheme will remain a pay-as-you-go system.
• Education: Teachers were granted an additional salary payment of Afs 1,300 per
month from May 2008, which implies additional expenditures of Afs 2,150 for 1387. This increase will be absorbed over time into the P&G system with about one third of all current teachers to be transferred to the new structure in 1388 and the remaining in 1389 and 1390. The Afs 1,300 would remain a pressure until the teachers are transferred in P&G scheme. Further, cost pressures on the budget arise from the decision to recruit an additional 62,500 teachers over the medium-term.
• Fuel: Afghanistan continues to partly rely on diesel powered electricity generation due to slow progress on the expansion of hydro-power and the delays in connecting to the regional grid, particularly to Tajikistan. There is slow progress in improving the efficiency and revenue collection of DABS (Da Afghanistan Breshna Shirkat, Afghanistan’s power corporation). New diesel capacity is being provided by the international community (notably the US and Iran). The estimated fiscal impact in 1388- 1391 is Afs 8 billion assuming Afs 2 billion in each year. It should be noted that these figures are subject to the agreement between DABS and MoF.
• Elections: In the absence of any comparable consolidated figures and tight budget constraints on election-related spending, it is not possible to estimate what amount is needed for the upcoming two elections (the Presidential election in 1388 and Parliamentary election in 1389). Each election will cost significant amount of money based on the cost of previous elections. However, it is believed that the upcoming elections will cost much more than the previous elections due to the
18
volatile security conditions. We have not accommodated this increase in the MTFF but it may prove to be a major fiscal pressure in the coming years.
Medium-term Fiscal Strategy (1388-92) The main objective of the fiscal policy of the Government is to maintain macroeconomic and fiscal stability, poverty reduction, and sustained economic growth. Over the past few years the sound fiscal policy adapted by the Government enabled the Government to making more effective use of available public resources and address the needs associated with the volatile domestic environment. Over the past few years the focus has also been diverted to investing in improving the quality of service delivery.
The Government has embarked on the medium-term fiscal strategy to ensure that fiscal stance is sustainable and will help to promote long-term growth prospects and assist in poverty reduction in the current global financial turmoil. The macroeconomic environment will be designed in a way that can facilitate the development of private sector and making it the real engine of sustained economic growth.
The main objective of the fiscal strategy over the medium-term is to ensure that domestic resources are adequate enough to finance the operating budget and the recurrent cost associated with the gross capital formation of the Government. The development of Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) called Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS) has paved the way to prioritize the available domestic resources and donor financing in the appropriate context.
These developments underscore the continuing need to operate prudent fiscal policy and maintain a strong fiscal position in the long-run. The Government is also taking appropriate measures to increase domestic revenue. This can be done by broadening the revenue base, strengthening the revenue administration and audit capacity, tax enforcement mechanism, and increase in compliance rate that will promote revenue generation avoiding any distortion. The Government is committed to strengthen the budget formulation and execution procedures to assist the implementation of ANDS and increasing public confidence. The Government will work towards increasing the transparency of public finances by timely production of fiscal reports.
The first stage of the fiscal planning tools which is Medium-term Fiscal Framework (MTFF) developed in 2005 was a successful exercise. The MTFF outlines the fiscal frameworks based on projections for broad fiscal aggregates that are consistent with key macroeconomic variables and fiscal targets. Broad fiscal aggregates (i.e. revenue and expenditures) are projected based on macroeconomic variables (i.e. growth and inflation) donors’ pledges and commitments, and policy measures. The adoption of MTFF served as a platform of confidence on the Government operations and played a key role in securing donor financing for the Afghanistan compact in London conference on Afghanistan in late 1385 (2005/06).
19
The second stage of Medium-term Frameworks (MTFs) which is Medium-term Budget Framework (MTBF); which the Government has already initiated; goes further beyond MTFF by allocating spending envelopes across different sectors and by giving the line ministries and agencies a green signal for prioritizing their needs based on the their relevant sector’s strategy and under the country’s overall development priorities set under the ANDS and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). A well developed MTBF provides the foundation for sound fiscal policy, budgeting linked to policy, and achieving macro-fiscal stability. The MTBF will assist in strengthening the Government’s strategic decision making process related to the national budget by involving different line ministries/agencies which will improve the national planning and budget process.
The third and final stage of MTFs is Medium-term Expenditure Framework (MTEF). MTEF will assist in sectoral allocation of spending across different programs and projects based on the detailed costing as outlined under the sector strategies of each sector and ANDS. MTEF also provides indication of output and outcomes under a program. In Afghanistan, based on the ANDS priorities, the sectoral strategies have been developed and the costing process has already been initiated in priority sectors (i.e. Health, Education, and Transport). Ministry of Finance is leading and coordinating the process of ANDS. The costing will enable the line ministries/agencies to align their budget with ANDS and Afghanistan Compact benchmarks, within the resource envelope.
Fiscal policy in Afghanistan has been geared towards stabilization and launching the country on a sustainable growth path. Government reforms have focused on improving the level and efficiency of revenue generation. With a commitment to achieve fiscal sustainability, the Government has programmed a modest growth – especially wage growth – in the operating budget. To reach ANDS objectives, however, fiscal policy remained expansionary given the extent of reconstruction needs of the country. The pattern of spending has focused on investing in the depleted human resources and rebuilding institutions for good governance. Because of these developments, the earlier objective of achieving fiscal sustainability in the operating budget by 1391 now looks very unlikely to be achieved before 1393.
In 1387, domestic revenues are expected be around Afs. 40,100 million compared to Afs 33,645 million in 1386, an increase of 19.12 percent. Domestic revenues for 1388-1392 are expected to increase against the 1387. For 1388, 1389, 1390, 1391, and 1392 with the revenue increase being 26 percent,22 percent, 21 percent, 20 percent, and 18 percent respectively over the horizon. In other words, domestic revenues will be more than double over the next five years. The Ministry of Finance is putting in place a range of measures to increase domestic revenues. Unless these measures are fully supported by various stake holders (Government agencies, Parliament, and the private sector), the Government and the Parliament will have to exercise tighter controls over expenditures.
With a commitment to reach fiscal sustainability (covering increasing operating budget with domestic revenues), the Government entered into the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF) with the IMF. Given this commitment, the Government has to make some hard choices in allocating resources among sectors and budgetary units. Unless additional and sustained donor support is provided to the core budget, new spending to meet ANDS priorities cannot take place. It is imperative that ministries maintain strict fiscal discipline
20
and take a shared responsibility to use existing resources as effectively as possible and absorb additional expenditure pressures from existing funds rather than proposing any new expenditures.
The short-term expenditure allocations outlook for 1388 and beyond looks very challenging and will influence the medium term fiscal path. The following are some of the emerging fiscal pressures over the medium term (more details are available in the chapter).
• Increase in the size of the Afghan National Army • Public administration reform for the non-uniform staff - Pay & Grading (P&G) • Judiciary Pay & Grading reform • Comprehensive pension reform • Increased enrolment and improved higher education • Fuel costs for electricity generators • Pensions

Donors’ Grants to Core Budget
Grants from our international development partners Donor grants play two important roles in Afghanistan. First, they support much ongoing (recurrent) expenditure, in particular in the security sector. Second, they fund nearly the entirety of the GoA’s development expenditures. As well as tracking past performance the MTFF forecasts future grant receipts, which, particularly for development budget grants, is an imprecise exercise due to the uncertainly that surrounds future support from donors.
Recurrent grants There are three sources of grant support to the recurrent budget. The Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (Recurrent Cost window – ARTF-RC), the Law and Order Trust Fund, which supports the Afghan National Police, and support channeled through the Combined Security Transition Command – Afghanistan (CSTC-A) which supports the Afghan National Army and some other security expenditures.
The recurrent grants to the security sector are one of the least certain financing sources and are one of the most difficult to predict for future years. Donor’s and the Government of Afghanistan have begun to take steps to improve this situation with the establishment of security sector working groups that bring together the Ministries of Defence, Interior and Finance, together with representatives from CSTC-A and LOTFA. The Terms of Reference for the working groups are to coordinate the gradual movement of security sector support from the external budget to the core budget, and to strengthen forward projections of donor assistance to a rapidly expanding security sector.
Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (Recurrent Cost window). The ARTF-RC has provided an average of Afs 14.2 billion per year between 1384 and 1387. For 1387 there was an additional one off grant to help fund an increase in teacher’s salaries.
From mid-1387 discussions have been underway on how to revise the ARTF-RC funding mechanism so to provide a scheduled exit mechanism for donors and offer more certainty to the GoA on future ARTF-RC funds. It has been agreed that ARTF-RC funding will decline by Afs 1.3 billion per year ($25 million) from 1387 levels and hence will run down to zero over the next 10 years (reaching zero in 1398). On the other hand, The GoA should increase its domestic revenues to reach fiscal sustainability.
Law and Order Trust Fund. LOTFA grants have averaged Afs 5.6 billion ($110 million) per year 1384-87 and have been increasing in recent years as the size of the Afghan National Police has increased (to an expected 82,000 by end 1387). For 1388 the forecast LOFTA grant is expected to more than double to nearly Afs 20 billion. Combined Security Transition Command – Afghanistan. CSTC-A support is primarily focused on the Afghan National Army. CSTC-A grants fund a series of salary top-ups to ANA personnel, and from 1387 these top-ups have increased by $20 per month. CSTC-A also provide assistance toward meeting the cost of feeding the expanded army.
27
Additionally there are a series of small grants to Afghanistan’s military high schools, and a variety of medical, reenlistment and other incentive payments.
The Government has committed to funding the core costs of a strong 70,000 army. Currently however assistance is required to fund the entire cost of expanding the army beyond this size. At the time of forming the 1388 budget the level of CSTC-A support had not been confirmed and hence the security expenditures for an army larger than 70,000 are contingent on receiving grants to support these expenditures.
Development Grants The development budget is considerably more dependent on grant funding than the operating budget. The two largest sources are from ARTF investment window ($302 million allocated in 1388) and the World Bank ($297.9 million). Grants from the Asian Development Bank are also significant ($134.4 million) and together all the other donors contribute $138 million, bringing the total to $903 million (Afs 46.9 billion). This excludes carry-over funding from 1387, which will only be known in early 1388, but is estimated to be in the region of US$700 – US$1,000 million. Included in this carry-over are funds from the ADB’s FMPAR program (Fiscal Management and Public Administration Reform) and the World Bank’s PSIB grant (Programmatic Support for Institution Building).
As with grants to the operating budget, development grants are difficult to forecast. Many donors simply do not know what funds they will make available in future years.
For the MTFF the base assumption is that funding levels will remain constant in dollar terms over the projection period. This is far from satisfactory given how much funding can jump from year to year. Pledges for new funding are in part dependent on what was spent in the previous year. If a development project runs much slower than originally envisaged there is little incentive for the donor to put forward new money in addition to what is being carried over. This assumption drives a future projection of there being between $850 and $950 million in new funding each year up to 1392.
Assumptions of the MTFF in 1389 and beyond The government of Afghanistan’s operating budget increases year on year broadly in line with inflation. MTFF determines the operating ceilings based on the following assumptions:
Wages and Salaries are indexed with half projected inflation Goods and services are indexed with full projected inflation Capital is indexed with projected Nominal GDP Growth Policy Reserves + contingency fund for emergencies should not exceed 3% of total
line ministries operating budget.
The short-term outlook for 1387 and 1388 is looking very challenging and that will influence the medium-term. 1387 has seen a series of emerging expenditure pressures
28
which together present a major challenge for the maintenance of the operating budget and in particular in 1387 and some of these will flow through into 1388 and beyond. The increases in fuel and food prices, combined with a continuing and growing food shortage domestically look likely to keep the pressure on in the short to medium-term. The cost of addressing security concerns continues to escalate and while most of these costs are borne on the external budget, decisions to increase the size of the Afghan National Army to 134,000 by 1389 (2010/11) will substantially impact the operating budget.
The objective of achieving fiscal sustainability by 1393 looks very likely to be achieved not by the target date. If there are not cutbacks in growth of the teacher workforce and public administration reforms in particular, donor support through the Recurrent Costs window will be needed for at least that time. The costs associated with the Presidential election due in 1388 together with the Parliamentary election in 1389 are not projected in increase.
Expenditures for 1388 and beyond The overall expenditures in the Core Budget are planned to be Afs 152,048 million (US$ 2,924 million), a decrease of increase of 18 percent, over the 1387 Mid-Year Review. The decrease is mainly due to the carry forward projects of the development budget. The budget may increase by about Afs 50 billion after the accounts for 1387 are closed. The increase in the operating expenditures reflects the growing need for core sectors such security and education. In the operating budget, the security sector (47 percent) and the Ministry of Education (15 percent) continue to absorb significant shares of expenditures.
The operating budget will be increased from Afs 73.26 billion (USD 1,465 million) in 1387 to Afs 93.9 billion (USD 1,807 million) in 1388. The major drivers of this are the (ANA, ANP) and the education sector. The rapid acceleration plan of the ANA to reach a size of 109,314 at the end of 1388 compared to 63,000 in 1386. The acceleration of ANP to reach 109,314 in 1388 from 70,000 approved and around 86,000 actual in 1387 is expected to cost an additional Afs 4 billion. The increase in the education sector (about Afs 14.47 billion) is mainly due to the recruitment of 5,000 additional teachers to meet the anticipated higher student enrolment in schools and Afs 1,300 per person per month pay rise from early 1387. The marginal cost of the Pay and Grading scheme is estimated at Afs 3 billion in 1388. The creation of the new Independent Directorate of Local Governance (IDLG) to improve local governance is expected to cost Afs 1.5 billion in 1388. The operating budget is 26 percent higher in 1388 compared to 1387. Operating budget as a percent of GDP would reach 13.6 percent in 1388 as compared to 12.2 percent in 1387. The share of wages including the security sector (ANA and ANP) in the operating budget is currently about 70 percent. Similarly, operating budget as a percent of GDP will increase to 13.6 percent of GDP in 1389 and 1390, respectively. The major driver of the increase is the P&G implementation and increase of ANA to 134,000 by end of 1389. Operating budget as a share of GDP would experience a declining trend thereafter and will reach 12.4 percent of GDP by 1392.
29
Revenues Afghanistan’s revenue to GDP has improved significantly over time except in 1386. In 1386, revenue to GDP ratio fell to 7 percent due to the bad performance in the collection of customs duties.
Customs revenues have always contributed the largest share to Afghanistan’s domestic revenues, with a 50 percent share. However, domestic taxes have been steadily increasing since 1382 as the economy has grown and tax collection efforts have been more successful. The share of tax revenue has grown from 60 percent in 1382 to around 75 percent in 1386. The total revenues were Afs 20,652 million (6.4 percent of GDP) in 1384, Afs 28,712 million (7.5 percent of GDP) in 1385, and Afs 33,645 million (7.0 percent of GDP) in 1386. The projected target for 1387 is set at Afs 40,000 million (6.6 percent of GDP). The Government is steadily approaching the target of self sustainability by increasing revenues.
At 7-8 percent of GDP, Afghanistan’s domestic revenue as share of GDP is one of the lowest in the world. Typically in most developed countries, the share of revenue to GDP falls in the range of 40 to 50 percent compared to 15-20 percent in most developing countries. High levels of pension entitlements and welfare measures in developed countries need high taxation levels. For Afghanistan, there are many reasons for low revenues including: (1) small private sector; (2) large informal economy with a dominant agriculture sector; and (3) low compliance and domestic revenue mobilization. Donor grants, notably through the ARTF which finances both the ordinary and development budgets, and LOTFA, which finances the Afghan National Police (ANP), have played an important role in having predictable resources available for the country. In 1386 the ARTF financed around $275.4 million with another $276 million in 1387. LOTFA financing is about $142 million in 1386, and forecasted to reach $163 million in 1387.
30
Revenues for 1388 and beyond In 1388, domestic revenues are expected to increase at a healthy pace of 26 percent over the 1387 target. The total revenues are expected to be Afs 50,600 million (USD 973.07 million). Taxes on income, profit, property and capital gains in expected to increase to Afs 10.31 billion (6 percent). Customs duties are expected to increase by 8 percent. Domestic taxes on goods ans services is expected to increase by Afs 5.7 billion (235 percent).The medium term looks promising given the ambitious reforms and new policies in revenues. Domestic revenue receipts are a key target under the Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility program that the Government of Afghanistan is implementing in partnership with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). These medium term projections of domestic revenue are formulated in collaboration with the IMF, and form the basis of the revenue forecasts for the MTFF. The Government is targeting to reach fiscal sustainability in the medium term. The estimates and revenue forecasts are based on the following policy assumptions to be carried out in 1388.
Ongoing and planned reforms in Revenue
Administration Liquidation and privatization of State Owned Enterprises (SOEs): The Government of Afghanistan is continuing work on a program of liquidating or privatizing most of the State Owned Enterprises. Part of the proceeds of these liquidations will be applied to past unpaid taxes for these enterprises and to the income tax liabilities that arises in respect of the sale or transfer of assets under the liquidation process.
Review of tax exemptions of donor contractors/subcontractors: Efforts continue to progressively review the claimed tax exemptions of major donor contractors and subcontractors to ensure that such exemptions have been correctly applied in terms of the overriding donor agreements. A particular area being focused on is ensuring that certain World Bank contractors are correctly paying taxes following the earlier decision of the World Bank to fund the tax expenses of its contractors since 1385.
Expanding the Large and Medium Taxpayer Offices (LTO, MTOs): The Large Taxpayer Office now handles the tax affairs of about 150 of Afghanistan’s largest taxpayers, which between them now pay 35 percent of domestic tax collections in Afghanistan. To further strengthen the work of the LTO, the staffing is being increased by 50 percent, and this will assist in identifying and managing the tax affairs of the largest taxpayers that are based in provinces outside Kabul. The Medium Taxpayer Office in Kabul is also being expanded by increasing its staffing by 50 percent. Later in 1388, the Government intends to commence establishing 5 Medium Taxpayer Offices, starting in mid-2009 with Herat, with others to follow in Mazar-i-Sharif, Jalalabad, Kandahar and Kunduz.
31
Expanding the tax base across business sectors. Non-compliance issues are being progressively addressed on a sector by sector basis focusing on those with the highest tax liabilities first. High levels of tax compliance are now achieved in the telecommunications, banking, airline and hotel sectors. The current focus is now on the security, construction and wedding hall sectors.
Continuing to roll out the implementation of ASYCUDA to customs border posts:
Following initial implementation and roll out of the internationally recognized ASYCUDA software to the Herat province, the computer system will continue to be rolled out to other provinces.
The Ministry of Commerce and Industries will continue to strengthen the single registration body for all investments and businesses that was established in 1387. This body aims to reduce confusion and overlap regarding the registration of businesses and the payment of business taxes.
Continuing to assist selected Line Ministries in their collection of revenues. The ongoing focus is on the Ministry of Transport and Civil Aviation (in respect of over-flight revenues, landing and parking fees, and airport departure fees) and in respect of the establishment of revenue collection processes for the new Kabul International Airport.
Policy changes A number of significant changes to revenue laws and practices are due to come into effect from the beginning of the 1388 tax year. The focus of these legal amendments has been on:
1. Reforming the business receipts tax (BRT) in preparation for its future replacement by a fully operational value-added tax (VAT)
Two specific revenue expanding measures proposed are:
i. The introduction of 2 percent Business Receipts Tax on imports ii. The extension of the 2 percent withholding tax on Government
contractors to also cover private sector contractors
2. Simplifying the tax system by rationalizing the range of fixed taxes and “nuisance”
taxes collected by the Ministry of Finance through the drafting of four laws during 2009 which will together comprise a “tax code” for Afghanistan.
The four laws are planned to be:
i. a revised and simplified Income Tax Law ii. a new Business Receipts Tax Law
iii. a new Tax Administration Law iv. a new Value Added Tax Law
The first three of these laws would be implemented immediately after their approval by Parliament. The Value Added Tax Law would replace the Business Receipts Tax Law a year after the former law has been approved by Parliament. VAT is thus expected to be implemented in 2011.
32
Non-grant financing
Borrowing The Government of Afghanistan adheres to a strict policy of no domestic or non-concessional foreign borrowing for fiscal purposes. The only borrowing undertaken is to finance development projects and only if it is on concessional terms. Current loans include those from the Saudi Fund for Development, the Asian Development Bank, the Islamic Development Bank and the World Bank. In recent years loan disbursements for development expenditures have been small (typically financing under 20 percent of total development spending) and is declining.
Sale of Government Assets The sale of government assets plays an important role in the financing of government operations. However the Government recognizes that these sales are one-offs and hence are not a sustainable source of financing for the future. Since 1385 large sales have taken place, every two years; the sale of Telecom licenses and the Kunar Woods timber concession in 1385 (Afs 2.3bn), no significant sales in 1386, and the first Aynak copper mining license payment in 1387 (Afs 4 bn). In 1388 we do not expect any significant receipts from sales of government assets, however in 1389 we forecast the second Aynak payment will be made, totalling Afs 8.3 billion ($160 million at the current exchange rate) with this payment being dependent on the successful completion of the copper mining feasibility study. For future projections we cautiously assume that sales (excluding the ‘big items’) total Afs 40 million per year, which is extrapolated from sales in the first three quarters of 1387.
Government Reserves The Treasury Single Account is the Government’s principal bank account. The TSA is where domestic revenues are deposited, expenditures paid from, where any surplus is saved for future years and where any deficit is funded if no other resources are available. In 1387 the stock of funds in the TSA is forecast to decline, despite the Aynak payment received in month 7. This is due to unexpected expenditures that exceeded our budgeted emergency reserves – principally the purchase of emergency wheat supplies. For future years the level of the TSA declines slightly, with replenishment in 1388 following the second Aynak payment.
33
RISKS AND UNCERTAINITIES The dominant risk remains the security situation. While the costs of the growth of the ANA are more or less covered, or the immediate potential additional pressures recognized, one significant impact of the security situation is on the collection of revenue (including the costs of collection) and the problem of continued nuisance taxes. Both inhibit the growth of trade and the ability of the productive economy to grow. If however, the security situation meant the withdrawal of physical and financial support that would create a very substantial risk to the fiscal path.
The potential impact of the current international financial crises on Afghanistan is not well understood at this stage. On one hand, the relative disengagement of Afghanistan from the world financial system could insulate it from some of the major problems. On the other hand there are two or three possible areas where there could be risk.
• First, the contributions to ANDS are generally denominated in US Dollars although there are numerous currencies involved. Some governments may preserve their pledge level in their domestic currency but exchange movements could reduce the number of US dollars (and thus Afghanis) available in the medium term to meet the priorities identified in the ANDS.
• Second, some Governments’ own budgetary circumstances might delay or reduce the amount available for aid to Afghanistan. At this stage the MTFF has not attempted to reflect any risk assessment other than to assume pledges are under the line.
• Third, regional global recession effects both positively and negatively the afghan economy. On the positive side, most of the commodity prices are falling whilst the global demand for afghan goods are declining in the international market.
In 1387 the Government did not meet some agreed benchmarks for the release of funds from major multi-lateral agencies, thus causing some significant changes to short term plans. Slow progress in some areas of public administration reform continues to place some potentially discretionary funds at risk. The MTFF does not count that as revenue above the line and the budget does not program them for expenditure.
There are no current proposals before Cabinet or the Parliament for new revenue sources. This will impose considerable pressure on the existing revenue base and make it imperative that the revenue agencies (Customs and Taxation) meet or exceed current targets. While the tax revenue trends are up, the current border revenue collection – the majority of the revenue base – are lagging. This problem could be exacerbated by slowdown in economic and trade activity leading to lower volumes, by unseasonal conditions preventing movement or a deterioration in security. Actions to bolster collection capacity and efficiency are in place to reduce some of the risk but there is still a medium level risk. The IMF PRGF conditions are being enforced strictly for 1388 and beyond. Should revenue collections fall significantly, expenditure reductions will have to
34
be introduced or delayed, if no new revenue options can be identified and passed through the Parliament.
The main source of operating budget financing has been through the recurrent cost window of the ARTF where donors make “unreferenced” grants to the budget. This allows the Government maximum flexibility in the expenditure of these funds (subject to strict accountability and account rules) and has in recent years allowed the capacity to benefit from slow disbursement by building up surplus funds for discretionary capital investment unlikely to be covered by donors from their preference allocations under the investment window of ARTF. As Afghanistan moves gradually from emergency management and an extremely low domestic revenue base, as planned and is occurring, there has been some questioning of the continuation of the level of funding available from the recurrent window and the agreement between the Government and the ARTF donors has just been reached on a steady decline of ARTF recurrent window by US$ 25 million (Afs 1,300) per year. This also put a serious pressure on the prioritization of available resources in the environment where everything is a priority. While overall allocations through ARTF may be maintained it is possible that the mix could change, potentially leaving the Government vulnerable to short term shocks such as another food shortage or externally driven price changes for fuel. This is currently under joint assessment between the donors and the Ministry of Finance, with the main impact is to be absorbed from 1388 onwards. Current provisions from ARTF in the MTFF therefore are adjusted in future. This would also have a spin off effect on the need to increase domestic revenue collection.
On the expenditure side the main risks and uncertainties (food, fuel, salaries and expansion of security forces) have been identified elsewhere in this paper. The LOTFA donors have also informed the MoF about the Government gradually taking over the food cost for ANP from 1389 which is currently been paid by LOTFA. It also imposes a significant risk on the budget for the coming years. One significant risk is still unknown and very difficult to cost. That is the impact of annual operating and maintenance costs of the product of capital investment. As major infrastructure investment is realized and handed over to the government the costs of maintaining them will be transferred to the annual operating budget. While there could be some offsetting efficiencies, there are likely to be significant pressures. This includes schools, medical centers and office buildings; roads and bridges; electricity generating plant and irrigation works among others. The MoF will commence a major review of this aspect of budget pressure in 1388, together with the major ministries affected.
35
BUDGET REFORMS AND PAST BUDGET PERFORMANCE
Strengthening the Effectiveness of Public Finances The recent budget reforms that have been introduced by the Ministry of Finance are aimed at achieving results for government spending and good governance. The Government intends to improve performance by providing results-orientation to policy making and prioritization. The reforms have also helped to put together an orderly process of budgeting and to build institutions for good governance and accountability. The national budgets of 1381, 1382, and 1383 were prepared mostly to meet emergency needs and immediate rehabilitation of basic services. Starting from the budgets of 1384 and 1385, national budgets started incorporating elements of a clear policy reflecting medium-term priorities of the I-ANDS and the Afghanistan Compact. With the completion of the ANDS, the Government has assumed the role of implementing ANDS through the national budget. The following processes and reform initiatives are expected to improve the effectiveness of public finances.
Aligning Budget Allocations with ANDS and Government Priorities In order to use domestic revenues and foreign assistance effectively, the Government should be able to align financial resources with ANDS priorities and enhance absorption capacity to improve project execution and quality of projects. Linking the ANDS to the budget process involves participation of ministries, provincial authorities, donors and the Parliament. As part of this process, the Government has taken efforts to develop a multi-year perspective in strategic resource allocation for the period 1387-1391. To develop such multi-year prioritization and turn the annual budget into a more policy-oriented tool, the Ministry of Finance has introduced a number of technical instruments and initiatives. These include: (a) the introduction of a medium term budgeting framework (MTBF), (b) program budgeting in key ministries, (c) provincial budgeting in a number of provinces, and (d) costing of sector strategies. In the medium term, these initiatives are expected to produce desired results not only in terms of linking budget allocations and ANDS, but also in terms of improving the overall service delivery throughout the country.
To develop this prioritization framework which is essential for the implementation of the ANDS and other Government priorities, the Ministry of Finance and the Oversight Committee discussed extensively the prioritization approach for public expenditures among sectors and ministries. In this process, MoF and ANDS have critically looked at previous budget allocations and achievements. These extensive discussions and consultations have led to prioritization and allocation of resources (both domestic resources and donor assistance) among sectors and ministries for the period 1387-1391. The process also recommended shifts in resource allocations from the past to achieve Government objectives and ANDS priorities.
36
Ownership of the Government in Prioritization and Budget Allocations
International experiences show that government ownership is important in effectively implementing national development strategies. Recent World Bank studies (of implementation of PRSPs) show that, among all the factors, government ownership of the development strategy (as in the case with the ANDS) and its implementation is the most important factor that contributed to successful implementation. Given the large external budgets in Afghanistan relative to the core development budgets in recent years and limited reporting systems by donors, links between the overall strategies of the Government and budget allocations (mainly external budgets) have been limited. This asymmetrical ownership and mismatch of the national development strategies and budget allocations is expected to produce less than optimum results in the sectors.
To create strong ownership of the Government in the prioritization process and allocation of resources among sectors consistent with Government-led development strategies, the Ministry of Finance and the Oversight Committee conducted a number of high level meetings. The strong collaboration between the Ministry of Finance and the ANDS in aligning budget allocations with Government/ANDS priorities has produced strong ownership by the Government. As a result of this process, for the first time, the Government is able to prioritize budget allocations to implement the priorities as contained in the ANDS.
Costing ANDS Priorities Costing of programs and projects is necessary in order to align development strategies with available resources in a prioritized manner. Costing is an essential policy tool for quantifying the needs in terms of human resources, infrastructure, and financial resources required to meet annual and medium-term targets. It is therefore important to better link ANDS objectives with medium term expenditure frameworks and budgets. Its entry points are long-term development targets that are broken down into (realistic) annual milestones. The costing exercise answers the question of how much it will take in terms of resources to provide certain interventions that are necessary for targets/milestones being fulfilled.
Box: Criteria for Prioritization with a Sector/Ministry
Expenditures must contribute, directly or indirectly, to the ANDS. Expenditure will be targeted at those activities which the private sector cannot realistically be expected to undertake.
Expenditures will target those activities which can be shown to have high socio-economic impact, as measured by rates of return or other quantitative/qualitative criteria.
Expenditures will target the activities that local communities have identified as important to them. Expenditures will be directed to well planned activities for which realistic and modest unit costs have been
identified and where there is a well-developed expenditure proposal. Expenditures that reduce future recurrent costs will be prioritised, for example non-wage funds (books, materials
and teacher training) to schools, road maintenance, and water supply. Expenditures will be targeted at those activities which can affordably be extended to the whole relevant target
population, rather than those which could only be delivered to a few. Activities that are labour intensive and create necessary infrastructure for development will be prioritised. Activities that favour disadvantaged groups, including activities which address gender or age-based inequities and
protect the rights of children, and activities that reduce economic inequality will be prioritised.
37
The Ministry of Finance (MoF) was tasked to lead the exercise with close collaboration with line ministries. Costing was started in October 2007 on a pilot basis with the Education Sector, the Health Sector and the Road component of Transport Sector. As part of this process, the Ministry of Finance provided five year ceilings to ministries so that ministries can cost their priority programs and projects within their respective ceilings. Before the Paris conference in June 2008, the exercise was rolled out to four sectors i.e. Education, Health, Infrastructure and Social Protection. After the Paris conference all the 17 sectors have been included in the costing exercise. Even though the process is ongoing, most of the important ministries have completed the exercise. Those ministries that have completed the costing exercise have used costing information in their budget submissions. This process is expected to improve the alignment of budget allocations with ANDS strategies and outcomes.
Program Budgeting With the development and adoption of the ANDS, sector and ministry strategies, the Government now requires a more transparent mechanism to operationalize these strategies and subsequently measure ministries’ progress towards the achievement of their priorities and policies. Program budgeting is one such mechanism. The program budgeting mechanism also integrates the operating and development budgets, which in turn will produce efficient budgetary outcomes.
To better link strategic objectives and policy priorities with the annual budget and prioritize the available funds, the MoF has introduced program budgeting for the 1386 budget. Program budgeting is being introduced on a gradual basis. An initial group of three ministries was selected to prepare the 1386 budget in program form (Ministry of Education, Ministry of Public Health and Ministry of Rehabilitation and Rural Development).
For the preparation of the 1387 program budgets, four additional ministries have been added: the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Water and Management, the Ministry of Public Works and the Ministry of Finance. For 1388, fifteen budgetary units in total will be included for program budgeting. The plan is to have all line ministries and independent budgetary units in the GoA introduce program budgeting in the next year or two (please see program budgeting annex for more details). .
Provincial Budgeting The Government has also adopted a provincial budgeting system for the 1386 budget on a gradual basis with three ministries (Ministry of Education, Ministry of Agriculture, and Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development) and three provinces (Balkh, Panjshir, and Kandahar). Its main theme was to enable the provincial authorities to formulate, execute, monitor, and improve the budget in their areas of jurisdiction. The ministries essentially consult the provincial authorities and stakeholders for addressing their local development needs and priorities. About 18 provinces will be covered for the 1388 budget involving 7 line ministries. It is expected that all provinces and ministries will get involved in provincial budgeting within 2-3 years (please see annex on provincial budgeting for complete details). In the provincial budgeting process, the line ministries disaggregate their national ceilings by province and communicate the fiscal envelope to each province based on the fair criteria that they develop. Provincial Directorates then formulate their sectoral budgets and
38
submit them to the Provincial Development Committees (PDCs) for extensive deliberations and decision. Once the proposals are submitted to the related ministries, they are reviewed, readjusted and finally submitted to the Ministry of Finance. Presently, the ministries are setting up provincial budgeting units to coordinate the provincial budgetary process and to develop the provincial development strategies. Capacity building and extensive training programs are planned for ministerial and provincial staff.
Project Preparation and Appraisal In order to improve project formulation and quality of projects in key ministries, a standard template/methodology for investment projects was prepared and introduced for the first time by the MoF into some of the operating ministries for the 1387 budget. This process is expected to improve the overall budget formulation, execution, and results on the ground. The ministries covered for the 1387 budget are Public Works, Transport and Civil Aviation, Mines, Energy and Water, Telecommunications, MRRD, Agriculture and Higher Education. More ministries are covered under the 1388 budget.
It is desired that each project to be formulated be based on a feasibility study, priorities of the ANDS and each ministry’s own strategy. The project document will state the project’s objectives, scope, location, and indicate the project’s state of readiness for implementation. Project cost has to be based on engineering design, quantity estimate, and provide for the related consultancies, training, and physical and price contingencies etc. Project documentation is to outline the financing plan, disbursement schedule, procurement and implementation plans. The project has to be based on engineering viability and financial/economic justification. The project’s possible risks and ways of mitigating them have to be stated, and, finally, its sustainability has also to be factored in.
Efforts in the formulation of sound projects will be continued over the medium term and more operating ministries will be brought within the purview of the methodology as incorporated in the template introduced for project formulation.
Gender Budgeting The Government, in line with the Constitution, ANDS and NAPWA, is firmly committed to equitable distribution of the benefits of national development among men and women. In order to ensure that the national budget reflects the needs of all citizens, the MOF, has embarked on a process to institutionalize gender budgeting throughout the government. This process includes training programs, workshops, and tools to introduce a gender perspective when evaluating projects and programs.
Women’s status in Afghanistan remains low but with the regular implementation of gender sensitive budget measures, the government can make sure that resources go to ensure women’s health, education and legal status are raised along with men’s, so that women ultimately are able to better contribute to the development of our nation.
With the establishment of Gender Budgeting Unit in MoF and Gender units in more than 10 ministries and the existence of a National Gender Machinery Secretariat as coordination body in the MoWA, the government has been putting in place necessary

institutional mechanisms. These new mechanisms need more resources and support for their expansion and capacity development.
Operating Budget Performance Public expenditures have been increasing sharply in the last few years. Between 1385 and 1387, Government’s operating expenditure as a share of GDP has jumped from 11.1 to 12 percent while the development budget has been growing significantly faster than the operating budget. An increase of 50 percent was observed in the operating budget expenditures between 1384 and 1386. The operating budget remains Tashkeel based. About two thirds of the operating budget goes to wages and salaries while the remaining one third is divided between goods and services, interest payments and subsidies and transfers. In fact the distribution has deteriorated in the past two years. Almost 65 percent of the operating budget goes to salaries and wages in 1387 compared to 62 percent in 1385. This is mainly due to the increase in salaries of ANA, ANP and other agencies. This trend is of serious concern because low spending on goods and services can adversely affect service delivery. The share of operating expenditures financed by domestic revenues improved from 38 percent in 1381 to about 66.5 percent 1386 with the remaining 33.5 percent being financed by donors. The Government of Afghanistan initial aims to fully finance the operating budget using its own revenues by 1393 is at stake.
Looking at the aggregate, the operating budget has been increasing for the last couple of years primarily due to an increase in the number of additional teachers, acceleration in the size of the Afghan National Army (ANA) and Afghan National Police (ANP). The actual executed operating budget increased from Afs 15.7 billion in 1381 to Afs 42.9 billion in 1385 and Afs 50.58.7 billion in 1386 whilst Afs 42 billion (64% of the total operating budget for the entire year) was in 1387 until the Mid Year Review. It is expected that over Afs 70 billion will be executed until the end of 1387. When we look at expenditure allocations among ministries, it shows that more than 50 percent of the operating budget is spent in three ministries because of its large and growing Tashkeel.
Development Budget Performance Core development expenditures have been growing much faster compared to the operating expenditures. This reflects the development needs especially in core sectors such as infrastructure, agriculture, rural development, and education consistent with the growing economy and need for improving physical and human capital. The overall execution has increased steadily: for example, from about Afs 22.4 billion in 1384 to Afs 48.17 billion in 1386. The execution is expected to improve to about a billion dollars in 1387. The core development expenditures for infrastructure, natural resources,

agriculture and rural development account for more than 70 percent of the total core development budget. In percentage terms the execution rate for the development budget increased to 55 percent in 1386, resulting from a pro-active role taken by the Budget Department of the Ministry of Finance during the fiscal year. Execution rates were about 44 percent in 1384 and 31 percent in 1383. The execution rate is expected to reach, although highly unlikely, only 50 percent in 1387 mainly due to the huge development budget in 1387 and some personnel changes in key ministries. Despite the improvement over the years, the budget execution rates are low in most ministries. A significant number of ministries have less than 30-40 percent execution rates, which shows low capacity and the need for further capacity building and improvement both in budget preparation and execution processes. It should be also noted that the difference between allotments and actual expenditures is mainly due to low capacity among some contractors in the private sector. There are several reasons for these low execution rates. Lack of prioritization, excessive fragmentation of projects, and inclusion of unprepared and partially-financed projects in the budget are some common reasons. Problems also exist at the execution stage including long procurement procedures and low implementation and monitoring capacity in most ministries. Other factors include the lack of predictability of external donors’ disbursements and the security problems in some parts of the country. Another key factor that has been identified for effective execution of the Budget is core capacity of line ministries, particularly in the areas of financial management and procurement. The Government has also taken a number of measures to address the above-mentioned problems through both the budget formulation and budget execution processes. These measures include the introduction of a nine month budget timetable; the early issuance of a budget circular; the active support to line ministries during budget formulation including a liaison mechanism through the Budget Department’s focal points for all line ministries; closer involvement of donors in the budget process; and introduction of the new mechanism. The Ministry of Finance reforms also includes the establishment of a Procurement Policy Unit to establish policy guidelines; provide support to line ministries; closely monitor budget execution and impediments; and take follow up actions to improve budget performance and execution regarding procurement. To increase policy coherence and closer alignment with the ANDS and other priorities, the Government’s policy is to encourage donors to channel more funding through the STA as it has many merits. Donors signed the Paris Declaration in 2005 which included a commitment to channel funds through the accounts of recipient countries. The Afghan Government has committed to improve fiduciary arrangements, accountability and performance to display to donors that such a move is a good investment.

Humanitarian and Disaster Response By Jaddi 1389 (end -2010), an effective system of disaster preparedness and response will be in placed.
Major Project: There are three projects under this benchmark with the total requirement of USD 1.6 million. The objectives of these projects are to construct zonal departments and administrative offices in provinces.
Key achievements in 1387
• MoLSAMD has trained approximately 55,000 unemployed youth and demobilized soldiers with at least 75% employment placement rate.
• A draft Pension Regulation which seeks to introduce a self-sustaining and modern Pension system for PRR employees has been submitted to the Ministry of Justice for legal vetting in 1387.
• Four women Parks are built in Hirat, Wardak, Laghman and Balkh Provinces. • National Action Plan for Women (NAPWA) is approved by cabinet and Parliament. • 46 National Disasters Management Plans were prepared.
Municipalities Municipalities according to the Constitution are entities to administer city affairs and are with elected mayors and councils. They are by and large self-sustaining entities with specific service delivery tasks (e.g. water, sewage, garbage collection and recreation) which must be financed by local charges and fees. Based on staffing levels approved by the Tashkeel Office, the Ministry of Interior, and IDLG, municipalities are distinctively different entities in terms of fiscal transfers and prepare their own budgets, which are approved by the MoF.
The number of municipalities is currently recorded at 159, with provincial municipalities in each of the provincial capitals. Of these, 95 are rural municipalities. According to the available recorded data from 1384 to 1387, there were 85 municipalities active in 1384 and this number significantly increased in 1385. There were 122 active municipalities in 1386 in the country. This increase also resulted in a significant increment in revenue. At the same time, a number of municipalities through the country remained unreported due to ill mail and electronic
communication systems and lack of capacity, and due to security reasons. However, shortfalls in revenue are due to cutting off property tax from municipalities’ revenue, removal of tax on crops; Wheat, Flour and also Oil had a big impact on short fall in revenue.
Following table 1 indicates the baseline number for existing municipalities recorded in 1384, and establishment of further provincial and rural municipalities during 1385 – 1387. The number of unreported municipalities during 1385 – 1387 is shown in the table 1.

Similarly budget and revenue figures during the same period (Table 2Table 3) show significant
increase in last three years. The highest figure of revenue collected is USD110 million in 1386.
However, there is a dramatic decline in 1387 to USD55 million. This was mainly due to the unreported
number of municipalities. During 1387, revenues are expected to go up by about 10 percent over 1386.

Tables 4 and 5 indicate the comparison of municipalities’ total budgets from 1384 to 1387 against total
aggregate National Budget from 1384 – 1387. Municipalities’ total budget is 8% of aggregate operating
budget in FY 1384 and 1385, and 9% in 1386 which has declined to 4% in 1387 in comparison to
aggregate operating budget in 1387. Similarly, municipalities’ total budget is 5% of aggregate
development budget in 1384 and 1385, an increase of 1% in 1385 and a dramatic decline in 1387 which
indicates the municipalities’ total budget was 2% of aggregate development budget. Comparing
municipalities’ total budget against aggregate total national budget, it makes the 3% of total aggregate
budget for 1384 – 1386 and 1% in 1387.

Gender Budgeting in Afghanistan Gender budgeting has gained prominence in recent years ensuring the integration of a gender perspective in budgetary policies and programs. The main aim of gender budget is seeking to mainstream gender analysis of issues within government policies; promote greater accountability for the commitment of governments to gender equality and influence budgets and policies. Hence, the Afghanistan Compact also highlighted the gender targets clearly and has two basic principles;
• To build up capacities of men and women alike, • To recognize in all policies and programs that men and women have equal rights and
responsibilities. Align with these principles, ANDS consider gender as a cross cutting issue and has few benchmarks for achieving the gender related goals of the country. Some of the benchmarks are as follows;
• Net primary enrolment for girls will be at least 60% for boys 75% • 150,000 men and women will be trained in marketable skills • Basic Package of Health services will cover at least 90% of the population. • The number of chronically poor female-headed households will be reduced by 20%
and their employment rates will be increased by 20%
For achieving above mentioned goals and benchmarks the Ministry of Finance, in line with the constitution and other policies of the government, is firmly committed to equitable distribution of the benefits of national development among men and women. In order to improve the capacity to ensure that the national budget reflects the needs of all citizens, MoF has embarked on a process to institutionalize gender budgeting within ministries.
MoF as lead ministry has leaded the mentoring and coaching including small trainings regarding mainstreaming gender budgeting concepts to inter-ministerial groups (MoWA, MoC, MoLSA, MMD, MRRD), the formation of a gender budgeting working group, and introduction of tools to introduce a gender perspective when evaluating projects and programs.
As result of these efforts, training materials on gender budgeting is available in local languages. The concept and vision of gender budgeting has become familiar to ministries. The gender budget vision focuses that the budget process will be on a just and fair basis and will make sure that resources are equally distributed to all citizens – male and female – equally. In the long term it will ensure that poverty has been reduced in Afghanistan and all people live in peace in a just society.
The gtz funded -gender mainstreaming project with establishment of a Gender Budgeting Units in several ministries is looking forward to the commitment and participation of all other ministries in designing and evaluating policies, programs and budgets. Eventually this will make sure that resources go to ensure women’s health, education and legal status are raised along with men’s, so that they ultimately are able to better contribute to the development of the country.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES PLAN
Details of the State’s Investment Strategy It is the policy of the Ministry of Finance that excess funds not deemed to be needed immediately to support budget expenditures shall be invested to earn additional funds for the government. Current investment of State funds is done by Da Afghanistan Bank (DAB) and amounts earned are kept by it to compensate DAB for bank services used by the government. It is anticipated in coming years that the earned money will be paid to the government and DAB will be compensated for the banking services provided based on market rates. The primary goal of the investment of State funds is to maximize investment earnings for the government while undertaking a prudent degree of investment risk. Authority for the investment of government funds under the direction of the Minister of Finance is derived from the Article 15 of the Public Finance and Expenditure Management Law. The Ministry will take into account the following principles when selecting acceptable investments for its excess funds: Safety of the principal of the investment Length of the investment Liquidity of the investment Diversification Minimization of foreign exchange risk
The amount of funds to be invested from time-to-time shall be determined by the Treasury Department of the Ministry of Finance using input from various departments/units within the Ministry such as Budget, Cash Management, Debt and Asset Management. The goal of the Ministry of Finance in this strategy is to work closely with Da Afghanistan Bank (DAB) to take advantage of any economies of scale in the investing process that DAB may be currently utilizing in their own investment process. All investments should be made on market terms
Old and New Debts of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan Based on international principles, external Debt is contracted between International Institution or Creditor and Debtor.

Debts without administrative fees In case of such debt, just principal repayments are made (debt related to Saudi Arabia Development Fund).
61
Debt which has administrative fees and commitment charges These debts are repaid bi-annually according to the terms and conditions mentioned in the Agreement. These debts are related to Asian Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank and World Bank. If the debtor could not used the amount of the loan in a specific time period then the debtor will pay a certain fee, which is called commitment charges, and all World Bank loans include commitment charges for unused debt amount.

ANNEX 1
PROGRAM BUDGETING
Introduction Traditionally in Afghanistan, the budget has been prepared on the basis of allocating resources to particular economic categories (i.e. allocating resources to budgetary units based on how much is required for wages, goods and services or capital). Little if any information has been available on what will be produced, which services delivered or what results will be achieved for those resources, particularly for recurrent (operating) expenditure.
With the development and adoption of the Afghanistan National Development Strategy (ANDS), Ministry Strategies and Sector Strategies, the Government of Afghanistan now requires a more standard and more transparent mechanism to operationalize and subsequently measure their progress towards the achievement of these priorities and policies. Program Budgeting is one such mechanism.
Principles Driving the Program Budget Program Budgeting is a modern approach to classify government expenditures. A program is a group of activities that have the same policy objectives. A program therefore brings together all expenditure (both operating and development) aimed at achieving that policy objective regardless of funding source. There are several important advantages and/or benefits that program budget bring to the Government ability to effectively and efficiently manage the resources available.
The key objectives of Program Budgeting are to:
1. Enable implementation of ANDS by creating strong link between ministry’s objectives and priorities (as stated in the ANDS) and its budget - provides opportunity for the ministries to design new and redesign current services that will directly contribute to the achievement of the expected results from national (ministry’s) strategies and priorities. 2. Integrate the ordinary and development budgets - take into account future running and maintenance cost of the existing investments/development projects; provide a comprehensive picture of all costs associated with a particular priority or service delivered by the ministry, regardless whether they are being financed from operating or core development funds. 3. Help ministries better justify their budgets – explain to the Cabinet and Parliament how does their budget proposal relate to ANDS priorities and objectives, and what are the results going to be produced and benefits achieved with the money spent. 4. Enables effective prioritization/budget allocation decision making process - assists the Government to more effectively allocate its resources to its most important and highest priority strategic objectives (budget planning), by providing more information on the benefits of the programs as well as the cost of achieving those benefits.
65
Program Budget Pilot Ministries In order to: (i) better link its strategic objectives and policy priorities with the annual budget and prioritize the available funds where they are the most needed, and (ii) to make line ministries accountable for their performance against the received budget, in 1385 the Ministry of Finance has decided to introduce program budget in Afghanistan. Program budget in Afghanistan is being introduced on a gradual basis – to a limited number of ministries each year. Plan is to have all budgetary units in the GoA introduced program budget in the next several years.
In developing the 1386 budget, the Ministry of Finance selected three ministries (Ministry of Education, Ministry of Public Health, and Ministry of Rehabilitation and Rural Development) to pilot the integration of the operating and development budget through the introduction of program budgeting. These ministries were required to present their budget information in a basic program format, linking their budgets with ANDS priorities and objectives.
For 1387 program budget preparation has been extended to additional four line ministries: Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Water and Energy, Ministry of Public Works and Ministry of Finance.
For the preparation of the 1388 budget, the program budgeting has been rolled out to nine additional line ministries, including: Ministry of Defense, Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Communications, Ministry of Commerce and Industries, Ministry of Labour & Social Affairs, Ministry of Urban Development & Housing, Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Higher Education and the Independent Directorate for Local Governance.
Program Budget Pilot Ministries submission for 1388 Budget Department, Budget Integration Reform Unit (BIRU) has been working closely over the last period with seven pilot ministries on developing their 1388 program budgets. Ministry of Finance has issued Program Budget Manual and prepared draft Action plan for pilot ministries, defining detailed steps ministries need to undertake in order to prepare their 1387 budget in the programmatic form, including:
1.Finalization of their ministry strategy, 2.Definition of the program structure, 3.Identification of performance indicators and 4.Costing of the activities, as well as 5.The preparation of the full 1388 program budget submission.
Budget Department has also prepared Program Budget Circular No 1 and Program Budget Circular No containing instructions and guidelines for the preparation of the 1388 program budget submission, as well as detailed Excel spreadsheets for the program budget submission. These Circulars were issued along with the Regular Budget Circulars in July and November, respectively.
The pilot ministries for the preparation of 1388 budget have successfully translated their strategic objective annunciated in the ANDS and in the ministry strategies into a number of programs and sub-program in order to establish a strong link between strategic objectives and the annual budget. In addition, the ministries were able to redesign current services and develop
66
new services that will contribute to the achievement of the national government’s strategies and priorities. The pilot ministries have successfully integrated their operating and development budgets at the program and sub-program level, taking into account future recurrent cost of the capital investment projects and providing a comprehensive picture of all costs associated with a particular service of the ministry, regardless whether they are being financed from operating or development budget, thus preventing possibility of gaps or duplications.
However, it is important to stress that the pilot ministry program budgets are indicative, and presented in the budget for informational purposes only and to provide a supplement to the traditional budget format. These pilot program budgets are not intended to be used as a basis for appropriation.
1388 Program Budget Implementation Quarterly performance reporting circular have been developed and will be issued by the Ministry of Finance (Budget Department) to the pilot ministries. Through these reports, the line ministries will be required to provide their quarterly budget execution report on a program basis, as well their performance results for each quarter. Based on the information provided, Ministry of Finance will be able to assess the level of budget implementation for each of the ministries’ programs, as well as whether the ministries are achieving the planed results and objectives of these programs.
Expenditure Tracking In order to accommodate need of the MoF and program budget pilot line ministries to track expenditures by programs, sub-program and activities in the AFMIS, Treasury and Budget Departments introduced changes in the CoA, as well as new authorization (allotment control) levels in the system.
All program budget pilot ministries will be required to prepare their 1388 quarterly allotments by programs, sub-programs and activities, and across all provinces where these activities are being implemented, and track their expenditures during 1388 accordingly.
Since AFMIS has not been rolled out to most ministries yet, budget formulation, execution and accounting processes at the line ministry level are done manually. To provide an immediate solution and enable line ministries to formulate their and track it more structured manner, budget department has been supporting the roll out “Budget Preparation and Expenditure Tracking Database” (BPET-DB).
Performance Reporting A quarterly performance report for each quarter has to be submitted by all pilot ministries, providing progress on the achievements in the quarter. Although in the first quarter of 1387 the pilot ministries provided fairly adequate information on the measurement of progress against the targets depicted through a number of outcome and output performance indicators, for a number of ministries this task proved to be extremely difficult to implement, since a number of 1387 indicators were deemed inappropriate and difficult to report against, due to: i) lack of a baseline;
67
ii) no tracking/monitoring system and iii) weak link between the outputs achieved through implementation of development projects and the performance indicators.
Hence, for the preparation of the 1388 program budget Ministry of Finance has undertaken proactive quality control measures to ensure the quality performance indicators. For the sixteen ministries that implemented program budget for 1388 budget year, focus during the 1388 should be implementation of the Monitoring and Evaluation system within the ministry, including: (i) data collection mechanism, (i) setting baseline, (iii) data storage and (iv) forming dedicated M&E Unit responsible for data management.
Way Forward The pilots will be reviewed by May 2009. The review will evaluate progress to date and on the basis of the findings in the evaluation a medium-term implementation plan will be developed for the full introduction of program budgeting across all budgetary units of the Government.

ANNEX 2
PROVINCIAL BUDGETING Provincial budgeting approach refers to the resource allocation process by provinces based on Interim Afghanistan Development Strategy (I-ANDS) reflected in the ministries’ organizational/ sector strategies. It is an important instrument to address economic, social, political and geographic concerns and priorities of the provinces. It helps to allocate resources to the programs on the basis of local people’s needs and governmental priorities; operate and deliver public services more efficiently; ensure that the budget reflects citizens’ preferences; and make the spending units empowered and accountable for their actions. Since August 1385, the Ministry of Finance initiated piloting of provincial budgeting during the preparation of the 1386 budget in order to improve the budget formulation, execution, and reporting of the service delivery arms (the provinces) of the central government.
Objectives The major objectives of introducing provincial budgeting are to:
1. Ensure a criteria based, equitable and transparent resource allocation across the provinces in order to reduce inter-provincial development disparities and facilitate effective public service delivery;
2. Ensure that the provincial authorities and stakeholders become active partners in the budgetary processes (formulation, execution, monitoring, and reporting) and to better address their development concerns, needs and priorities;
3. Ensure that the local development issues are well addressed and linked to the Interim Afghanistan National Development Strategy (I-ANDS);
4. Inform the Provincial Units on the budgetary processes and promote its use as a tool to address the concerns, needs and priorities of the local community;
5. Measure the level and quality of government services by provinces and assert governmental presence in the provinces leading to improved security;
6. Increase predictability of the budget execution rate in the provinces;
7. Let the provincial officials from the beginning of the year what they have to spend during the year rather what they will receive periodically by their ministries.
Piloting of Provincial Budgeting Provincial budgeting is a part of the budget integration and reform initiatives undertaken by the Ministry of Finance. It has been implemented in a phase-wise manner with a view to enable the provincial authorities to formulate, execute, monitor and improve the budget in their area of jurisdiction. The piloting started in 1385 with three ministries (Ministry of Education, Ministry of Agriculture, and Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development) and three provinces (Balkh, Panjshir, and Kandahar).
These ministries were selected for their contribution made to the socio-economic development process of the country. For the selection of the provinces, Balkh is an example of province with better capacity and a good level of socio-economic development; Panjshir is a newly established province with serious socio-economic development problems; and Kandahar is a
70
province with security problems. From 1386 seven more provinces (Logar, Nangrahar, Ghazni, Bamyan, Faryab, Hirat and Badakhsan) have been added. Four more ministries (Finance, Water and Energy, Public Health, and Public works) and ten more provinces would be undertaken in 1387 so as to cover all the ministries and provinces within next two-three years.
Implementation procedures Ceilings are identified for line ministries and line ministries are asked to Prioritize and disaggregate their national ceiling by province. Ministries will consult the disaggregated ceiling with their line departments to ensure that the provincial development plans, prioritized projects are incorporated in the budget and provincial budget reflects priorities and are based on the ministerial strategy, Afghanistan development strategy and provincial strategy. The provincial directorates of the pilot ministries prepare their sectoral budget proposals based on the Provincial Development Plans (PDPs). Provincial Development Committees (PDCs) after essential deliberations on these sectoral budget proposals forward to the concerned line ministries for review, if any. If the provincial submissions need revisions or modifications the budget proposals are sent back to the PDCs for approval. Having received the final submissions from the PDCs the line ministries aggregate and submit them to the Ministry of Finance for final approval. In the process, the Ministry of Finance has been extending technical support to the piloted line ministries as well as the piloted provinces through its Budget Integration and Reform Unit (BIRU) established in the Budget Department.
Achievements In spite of different difficulties in various stages of project implementation, the results of the pilot project seem encouraging. Especially after the introduction of provincial budgeting system, the central level authorities have started to formulate the budget ‘with’ the provinces not merely ‘for’ the provinces. Other achievements were as under:
• The line Ministries were able to disaggregate their national budgetary allocation by province with programs holding direct consultation with their provincial directorates prior to preparing the provincial allocations;
• Showing great interest on provincial budgeting process, the PDCs held extensive deliberations at the provincial level. They have already started to formulate and prioritize their programs identifying local concerns, needs and priorities;
• Further need of introducing procedural and system changes to improve quality and completeness of the provincial expenditure data and their reporting system have been noticed;
• The provincial budgeting has empowered the provincial authorities to analyze, scrutinize and prioritize their provincial budget allocations.
Challenges and Issues Despite the crucial achievements made in this direction, vital challenges have also been noted during its implementation as under:
71
• The provincial budget submissions lacked strategic vision and were not in conformity with the I-ANDS;
• Provincial Development Plans have not yet been referred as carte du jour, for provincial budgeting;
• Ministries have not yet come up with their provincial development strategies based on their ministerial/ sectoral strategies;
• Ministries lack viable coordination mechanism at the central level to coordinate and respond to the provincial budgetary processes;
• Provincial officials lack adequate knowledge on the overall budgetary framework, concepts and its processes.
• Provincial budget performance report both fiscal and physical has been very difficult to obtain from the Ministries and the provincial directorates.
The way forward Presently, the line ministries are in the process of setting up a provincial budgeting unit in order to facilitate and coordinate the provincial budgetary process. They are also developing their provincial development strategies. As significant capacity gap has been noticed at different level, capacity building programs to different officials will be launched right from the beginning of fiscal year 1387. Training need identification and curricula development is in progress for imparting training to the trainers, finance officers, provincial directors and the Mustofies. Training to these provincial officials would be massively imparted in next fiscal year so as to enable them to formulate, execute, monitor the provincial budget and make appropriate/timely reports. Besides, A Handbook on the Provincial Budgeting in Afghanistan is about to be published in local languages beside its English version. The Ministry of Finance will finalize a review of the pilot project and prepare a strategy to move forward. The results of the review will be presented to the stakeholders in May 2008.
