Rationalization Of Public Spending At The Heart Of Budget Reform In Algeria

Authors : Bensaoula Sarah . Bezzar Mohammed Soufyane .

Abstract

Algeria's financial situation remains more than constrained by limited budgetary resources, which has necessitated greater rigour and control of public spending in order to ensure budgetary sustainability in all respects. In order to rationalise spending, Algeria has embarked on a vast reform project through the application of Organic Law No 18 15 relating to the Finance Laws. The aim of this law is to define the appropriate methods for effective, rational and modern expenditure management. We have concluded that the modernisation of budgetary systems is still far from achieving the desired results, but there is no doubt that this reform has made a substantial contribution to the management of public spending in Algeria.
