The Budget Public Cycle
• The Budget Public Cycle can be defined as the continued process that
the public budget has to pass through its lifetime.
The Budget Public Cycle passes through four
levels as follow: Preparation level
Endorsement level.
Executing level.
Monitoring level.
Public Budget Preparation level.
The executive authorities are responsible about preparing the Public
Budget, in Palestine the government is the legal entity that responsible
about preparing and implementing the Public Budget.
The Government supposed to acquire the required abilities and
experiences in order to prepare the Budget.
Public Budget Preparation steps

asked to prepare a separated budgets for each ministry.
2. Each minister design an internal committees in order to discuss their
expected earnings and expenditures for the next year.
3. Each ministry send its estimation to the ministry of finance.
4. The ministry of finance has the right to discuss other ministry’s budget
before the acceptance.
5. The minister of finance combine each ministry budget in order to design
the Public budget; this Public Budget should reflect the government's
goals for the next year.
6. The projected Public Budget handled to the ministers counsel to be
discussed before Presenting it to the legislative counsel.
Public Budget Endorsement level
Before endorsing the Public Budget; it should pass Four steps:
1. The ministers counsel handle the designed Public Budget to the
legislative counsel before two months of the fiscal year end.
2. The legislative counsel pass the handled Public Budget to committee of
Budget and financial affairs (an internal committee) in order to study it
and provide recommendations.
3. The legislative counsel held a session to discus the handled Public
Budget, after the discussion the ministers counsel has to apply the
discussed edits through a period of time doesn’t exceed two weeks.
4. The legislative counsel vote for each item mentioned in the Public

Execution level
The government is the responsible entity to implement the Public
Budget through collecting earnings and allocating expenditures as
designed in details in the Public Budget.
• Once authorized by parliament, the budget allocations should be
implemented fully and faithfully by the agencies of government, with
oversight throughout the year.
• Parliamentary authorizations should allow ministries and agencies
some limited flexibility to reallocate funds throughout the year in the
interests of effective management and value-for- money.
Monitoring level
The monitoring level works side by side with the execution level, the
purpose for Monitoring level is to be sure that the designed Public
Budget is performed in an efficient and effective way or not.
There are three monitoring types:
- Managerial monitoring: an internal monitoring through the
government
- Legislative monitoring: the legislative council held sessions to
interrogates any party of the executives.
- Independent monitoring: NGOs, media .. Etc.
The fundamental national role of the budget
• The budget is a central policy document of government, showing how
it will priorities and achieve its annual and multi-annual objectives.
• The budget is the primary instrument for implementing fiscal policy,
and thereby influencing the economy as a whole.
• the budget is a contract between citizens and state, showing how
resources are raised and allocated for the delivery of public services.
• External stakeholders also look to the quality of the budget
document, and of the budgeting process, in assessing the soundness
and reliability of a state.
Four types of Public Budgets
There is no one acceptable type to prepare a public budget, there are
common sense but each type of public budget has different
characteristics according to the nature of the involved party.
These types as follow:
1. The traditional public budget.
2. Performance and programmed public budget.
3. Planned public budget.
4. Zero-based public budget.
The traditional public budget.
It is the first used public budget in the world, UK was the first country
to use that type of public budget, nowadays its commonly used in
developing countries.
The traditional public budget usually combine the governmental
earnings and expenditures in one sheet, each item listed in that sheet
should be classified in details.
Performance and programmed public budget
The main purpose for this type of public budget is to direct the public
earnings into achieving previously designed programs; thus the goal
there is to achieve the goals without considering the budget constrains.
According to Performance and programmed public budget the
governmental activities should be split into programs, for each program
there is a separated goal, each program splits into sub-programs, for
each sub-program there are several objectives to be achieved in order
to fulfill the main goal.
Performance and programmed public budget mostly used by ministers
rather than governments.
Planned public budget
This type of public budget used for long term planning in order to
achieve the sustainable and long-term goals
Highly developed countries mostly use planned public budget.
Zero-based public budget.
Mainly this type of public budget concentrate on financing the
designed programs without looking for past data; by using this kind of
budget we have to assume that previous projects were not existed
before.
Zero-based public budget mostly used by small or local governments,
also it could be suitable for NGO’s budgets.
In Palestine the most common used type of public budget is the
traditional public budget, as it suites the nature of the economy as a
developing country.
