With support from the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (NMFA), The institute was able to conduct Training Workshop for Members of Parliament on their role in Budget Development and Oversight Functions. The one-day training workshop for MPs on budget focuses on public financial management, the budget process, and oversight. The training workshop aimed at empowering members of the parliament with the necessary knowledge and skills for sourcing the needed financial resources for the institution and ensuring efficient and optimal utilization of such resources. MPs among others are responsible for reviewing the budgetary estimates required once presented to parliament by the Ministry of Finance for approval. Parliament is required to represent the people and to ensure government by the people under the Constitution. It does so by choosing the president, providing a national forum for public consideration of issues, passing legislation, and scrutinizing and overseeing executive action. Parliament’s oversight of the executive is strengthened by its ability to analyze budgets before and after they are implemented.
