    '()*s t! p+esent

    During the period from1988 to 1999, the country experienced four changes in civilian

    governments. Until 1993, when the country had the first PPP government 1988 to 199!" and thefirst P#$ government 199!%1993", government expenditures remained high, at a&out 1! percent

    of the 'DP. (evenues also fell slightly &ut fiscal policy continued to &e expansionary. )ince

    1993, we o&serve a declining trend in government expenditures as well as in revenues. *he

     &udget deficit had started to shrin+ even &efore the present military government too+ over. *hisdecline in government &udget deficit perhaps also reflects the macroeconomic adustments that

    the country undertoo+ under the -# restructuring program. iscal policy &ecame relatively lessexpansionary during this period. *he decline in government expenditures &ecame sharper afterthe present military government too+ office of the chief executive of the country. )ince then,

    revenues also declined at a faster rate &ut the decline in revenues was not as sharp as it was in

    expenditures so that the &udget deficit as a percentage of 'DP declined sharply from a&out / percent in 1999 to a&out 3 percent in 0!!. iscal policy has clearly &ecome less expansionary.

    2n the &asis of the trends that we o&served a&ove, it appears that deli&erate attempts to control

    fiscal deficit in Pa+istan started only from 1993 when expenditures were cut. Until 1999, fiscaldeficit remained a&ove percent of the 'DP, &ut declined more rapidly over the six years of

     present government. *his reflects the governments resolve to reduce fiscal deficit to 4ero &y the

    year 0!!/ and maintain a surplus thereafter. iscal policy is expected to remain less

    expansionary in the near future.-n the 199!s the growth rate tum&led largely &ecause of decline in capital inflows and a

    num&er of other factors5 including persistent lapses in implementation of structural reforms and

    sta&ili4ation measures. *hus in terms of economic growth, the period came to &e +nown as the6lost decade.

    *he worsening law and order situation during the 199!s affected not only the security of 

    life, property and honor of individuals, &ut it also created difficulties in entering into contracts

    and their enforcement. -n the wa+e of internal insta&ility and udicial lacunas, investors, &oth

    domestic and foreign, could not exploit investment opportunities in the country. (ampant

    corruption and worsening standards of governance of almost all national institutions amounted toa prohi&itive cost of doing &usiness in the country.

    Pa+istans credi&ility was also on the decline externally in general, &ut particularlyamong the -nternational inancial -nstitutions and also domestically with the general pu&lic.

    7greements signed &y successive governments with the -# and the orld an+ were &reachedmore often than implemented. *ough decisions to end su&sidies, to remove price distortions,

    mo&ili4e domestic resources, widen the tax &ase, eliminate discretionary controls, were avoided

    with the result that the cumulative impact of these deferred decisions eroded the productive &ase

    of the economy and created a large credi&ility gap vis%:%vis the -nternational inancial-nstitutions/.

    ithdrawals from foreign currency deposits of resident Pa+istanis were suspended in #ay, 1998.

    *his antagoni4ed an important class of investors

    -n fact despite a high rate of economic growth, the 198!s was a period of missed opportunities,and the legacy the economic managers of this period left for those who followed was not anenvia&le one. irst was the rising fiscal deficit, the result of a very large increase in government

    expenditure including defense", which left a crushing de&t &urden on the economy. )econd, if 

    the needed economic reforms to achieve macro &alance and competitiveness had &een initiatedwhen the economy was in a relatively strong position it would have lessened the &urden on the

    economy and the people of underta+ing these reforms when the economy was in a relatively

    much wea+er position.

    ;uxtaposed to a difficult and trying economic environment, the 199!s saw a slowing

    down of economic growth &ecause of shoc+s &eyond the control of economic managers. *here

    had &een large fluctuations and a decline in cotton production which was persistently hit &y pestattac+s, continuing slowing down of remittance inflows, &ad weather conditions which directly

    affected agricultural production and economic sanctions after Pa+istans nuclear explosion in

    #ay 1998. re

    *he tax revenue has surpassed the target for the third year in a row &ut nominal 'DP is

    increasing at a faster pace than tax collections therefore the tax%to%'DP ratio remained almost

    stagnant.

    Trends in Expenditure

    *he 'overnment is moving ahead on its agenda to improve expenditure management and fiscal

    transparency. *he total expenditure remains more or less sta&le in a narrow &and of 1/ to 18.8

     percent of 'DP during the last seven years. )u&stantial decline in interest payments from as high

    as /. percent of 'DP in 1998%99 to 0./ percent of 'DP in 0!!5%!/, has provided fiscal space to

    re%orient. Cxpenditure in favor of development expenditure. (esultantly the share of current

    expenditure in total expenditure declined from 89 percent of total expenditure in 1998%99 to /0

     percent in 0!!5%!/. -n addition, the share of development expenditure more than dou&led from

    11 percent to 08 percent in the same period. *he development expenditure &ore the &runt ofstructural adustment of the 199!s as it declined from as high as /. percent of 'DP in 1991%90

    to 0. percent of 'DP &y 1999%0!!!. During the last seven years the development expenditure

    improved from 0.0 percent of 'DP in 0!!!%!1 to =.9 percent of 'DP in 0!!5%!/. )econd largest

    component of the current expenditure, namely, defense spending remained stagnant at around 3.1

     percent to 3.3 percent of 'DP during the last seven years. *his shows strong focus of the

    government on removing infrastructural &ottlenec+s and &uilding physical assets. *he

    'overnment is achieving the goal of fiscal sta&ili4ation without compromising spending on the

    social sector. Bon%defense%noninterest expenditure has improved from /.8 percent of 'DP in

    1999%0!!! to 11.9 percent of 'DP in 0!!5%!/.

    2ne thing was common &etween these two decades that development expenditure was the victim

    of all sorts of fiscal consolidation and expenditure rationali4ation. *he current expenditure

    increased su&stantially in the 198!s &ut could not +eep pace &ecause of slowdown in the growth

    and stagnation of revenues in the 199!s. Defense expenditure in terms of percent of 'DP was

    rising in the 198!s &ut since then declined throughout the 199!s &ut sta&ili4ed during the last

    seven years. *he nondefense non%interest expenditure was persistently declining since the 198!s

     &ecause of rising defense spending and interest payments. *he com&ined impact of two

    committed expenditure items defense and interest payments" went as high as 9 percent of total

    expenditure and 55 percent of current expenditure in 1998%99. *his has declined to ust 30 percent and =3 percent, respectively in0!!5%!/ which indicate a paradigm shift in allocation of

    expenditure among priority sectors as a result of growing fiscal space.

    Trends in Real Expenditure

    *he nominal monetary value of expenditure is a direct charge on &udget &ut the composition of

    expenditure in real terms after adusting for inflation" provides real food for thought. 7n

    analysis of real growth patterns in expenditure reveals some interesting facts. *otal real

    expenditure grew at a &ris+ pace of /./ percent per annum, on average, in the 198!s owing to

    sharp acceleration of 1!. percent in real current expenditure. Development expenditure grew &y

    modest 0./ percent on average in real terms &ut interest payments grew &y 18.1 percent,

    reflecting tremendous pace of accumulation of pu&lic de&t.

    -nterestingly, real defense spending followed the higher growth path and grew &y 8.9 percent on

    average. )uch a level of fiscal indiscipline in the past forced Pa+istan to undergo a painful period

    of structural adustment in the 199!s.
