Course programme
- A brief history of financial management in government
- Budgeting at national level
- The art of cutting budgets
Upon completion of this course, you will be able to understand that:
- The classification of the budget enables plans to be made according to how predictable and controllable expenditure is in the different categories.
- The budget process is almost entirely ‘top-down’, with money cascading from the Treasury, even in local authorities and the health service.
- Cutting spending, in the hierarchical approach used for budgeting, involve arbitrary cuts at the top and implementation much further down the chain.
