59. Cash management. Provisions related to the Treasury Single Account and cash flow forecasting (including the powers to require budget units and revenue departments to supply forecast information) would normally be covered by the budget or financial administration legislation. However the 35 See Lienert (2010). In countries where off-budget spending is significant and takes place outside the authority of annual appropriation acts, as part of reporting requirement by the government to the Parliament, a comprehensive Fiscal Risk Statement should be provided which includes full and regular reports on all extra-budgetary spending, contingent liabilities and quasi-fiscal activities. In the absence of such transparency arrangements, it may be useful for the Parliament to avoid approving laws that authorise off-budget spending. However, this is outside the scope of the GDMA, except that debt reporting should include information of government guarantees. Example: Section 12 of the National Treasury Management Agency Act, 1990 Ireland. ‘Accounts...signed by the Chief Executive [of the NTMA] (who shall be the officer accountable for such accounts) shall be submitted as soon as may be, but not later than months after the end of the financial year of the Agency to which they relate...to the Comptroller and Auditor General for audit and a copy of the accounts as so audited shall be presented to the Minister as soon as may be and the Minister shall cause a copy of the accounts as so audited to be laid before [parliament].’ 21 GDMA may need to facilitate active cash management. This would include authorising the treasury or DME to place surplus cash in the money markets (repo or bank deposits, although bank deposits should ideally be collateralised); and to issue short-term borrowing instruments to cover cash shortfalls. This would include both repo (in more developed markets) and Tbills; and it means that there should be no restriction that limits the use of Tbills to debt management purposes only. It may be that the provisions would require consultation with the central bank. 60. Download 158.87 Kb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
