Fiduciary Issue 1: Systems
Core systems have significant weaknesses and are not adequately interlinked. Tax, HR, Procurement, Cash Management, Debt Management, Budget Preparation etc. are all stand alone programs.
MOFEA (Nov. 24, 2008): “…there are multiple uncoordinated IT initiatives across the Government and we believe this is the problem to sort out.”
![Page 13: Tanzania: PEFAR 2008 Building PFM systems and Reducing Fiduciary Risk Presentation to the General Budget Support Annual Review 2008 Ubungo Plaza, Dar es.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e8a5503460f94b8f487/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1313
Fiduciary Issue 2: Revenue
There is no central revenue database. MOFEA cannot reconcile revenue collections in Line Ministries with amounts actually deposited in BoT. Revenue retention schemes complicate the situation.
MOFEA (Nov. 24, 2008): “Testing of the database is expected to start in March 2009”.

Fiduciary Issue 3: Expenditures
Some software components – such as the budget reallocation module continue to be dysfunctional after 10 years.
Bank reconciliation has been and remains a major challenge.
Just one account – 16:140 (Miscellaneous Deposits) had T.sh 1 trillion of outstanding reconciliations to process. (July 08)
Around 80% of monthly transactions between MOF and BoT are not reconciled through the auto reconciliation process.
MOFEA (Nov. 24, 2008): “From our point of view we recognize this as a fundamental problem to the operation of IFMS.”

Government needs to gain control over its own cash from commercial banks.
Fiduciary Issue 4: Cash Management

Erratic fund flows result in the build up of arrears and adversely impact service delivery.
Fiduciary Issue 5: Fund Flows

Fiduciary Issue 6: Procurement
Procurement remains a major area of concern. In FY 08 only 42% public bodies responded to PPRA’s request for information.
Of the ones that responded, average level of compliance for MDA’s was 45%.

Fiduciary Issue 7: Internal Audit
Internal audit remains the weakest component of the control framework. It has consistently been rated “D” in PEFA assessments.
![Page 20: Tanzania: PEFAR 2008 Building PFM systems and Reducing Fiduciary Risk Presentation to the General Budget Support Annual Review 2008 Ubungo Plaza, Dar es.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e8a5503460f94b8f487/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Next Steps
PFM reforms require a dynamic team and dedicated leadership. PFMRP Phase III is to be launched on November 27,2008.
There is need to focus on improving the IFMS, revenue recording, bank reconciliation, cash management, fund flows, procurement and internal audit.
We look forward to supporting MOFEA to ensure that the program achieves its objective to improve systems and reduce fiduciary risk.
