Pakistan : Sindh Provincial Accountability Assessment

The Sindh PFAA was undertaken during 2003 to support the Sindh Structural Adjustment Credit and also to support the overall Country Financial Accountability Assessment (CFAA) which was completed in December 2003. The assessment covers budget developments and execution, financial reporting/accounting and internal control, external audit, and legislative oversight. This assessment notes that there is a longer term need for evolving a comprehensive legal framework of financial management in addition to the more short-term strengthening measures already partly underway in the Sindh Reforms Program. The assessment proposes a time-bound action plan, contained in the Action Matrix at the end of the report, for moving forward on each of the areas of reform and capacity building.
