Accountability in reporting between central government bodies and parent ministry
Analysis of the number of central government bodies reporting to a parent ministry that meet the following three criteria in the latest full calendar year:
• The annual plan is submitted to the parent ministry for approval;
• The annual activity report of the subordinated body is submitted to the parent ministry;
• The subordinated body’s budget has been submitted to and approved by the ministry.
The measure is based on a sample of eight bodies in total. Two bodies are selected from four different ministries: 1) the ministry of interior; 2) the MoF; 3) the ministry of justice; and 4) the ministry of economy. Subordinated bodies with the highest number of staff are selected for each ministry.
Point allocation:
• 4 points = all eight bodies meet the criteria.
• 3 points = seven bodies meet the criteria.
• 2 points = six bodies meet the criteria.
• 1 point = five bodies meet the criteria.
• 0 points = four or fewer bodies meet the criteria.
