Presentations: OECD Parliamentary Budget Officials workshop
17 May 2011
OECD

The 3rd annual meeting of OECD Parliamentary Budget Officials, Stockholm  took place in Stockholm recently.  Presentations from the workshop are available to download from the OECD website.  The OECD Working Party of Senior Budget Officials (SBO) has created a network of parliamentary budget officials. Early work to create this network involved meetings of chairpersons of parliamentary budget committees, and a meeting on the relationship between the legislature and the budget office. Parliamentary budget institutions include such bodies as independent parliamentary budget offices and specialised units dedicated to technical support or research for parliamentary budget committees, as well as specialised professional staffs of parliamentary budget committees.
