| Summary, etc. |
Governments all over the developing world, and also in some developed countries, are worried about the rising cost of public services. The bureaucracy has expanded at a faster rate than the growth in economy. Many developing countries now find it difficult to meet the cost of day-to-day administration, the major portion of which consists of wage bills. Out of revenue receipts, very little is left for urgently needed social and economic growth and the development of infrastructure. Most countries are facing the problem of budgetary deficits. Hence the development expenditure, and in some cases recurring expenditure too, is being increasingly met through domestic and external borrowing. Debt servicing is becoming the major claimant on government revenues. In Pakistan, debt servicing is the number one item of revenue expenditure. In recent years, the Government of Pakistan has initiated a number of efforts aimed at determining an appropriate size of its civil services. The focus of this section, however, is on the measures taken to keep checks on the size of the federal government sector. The provincial and local government bureaucracies, which provide most of the services to the citizen, outnumber federal government employees but have been excluded from this discussion. The state-owned enterprises under the federal government are also excluded although the number of their employees is greater than that in the federal Ministries and Departments. The paper also sheds some light on the role of the Management Services Division in determining an appropriate size of federal organizations. - Reproduced |
