Strengthening budget execution and reporting systems. In 2005 the government
implemented the Government Fiscal Management Information System (GFMIS) – a real-time
nationwide budget execution and financial reporting system, at the Comptroller General’s
Department (CGD) of the Ministry of Finance. In tandem with the GFMIS the CGD has also
implemented a suite of satellite financial reporting systems that would allow for greater fiscal
reporting, as well as strengthen operations of the internal control systems. At the same time to
improve budgeting and financial reporting at the local level, the Ministry of the Interior developed
the e-Local Authority Accounting System for LAOs.
