Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today proposed a new approach whereby ministries or departments which exercise thrift in their spending can receive again a part of their savings.
This would be in appreciation of the efficiency of the ministries or departments in saving costs so that they could implement other programmes or give incentives to their officers, he said.
"It is the tradition now for us to look at the budget approved every year and praise the ministry that spends all the allocated funds.
"The criterion is that the allocation is totally spent, but is that the absolute criteria? Why are we not challenging ourselves? We can achieve our objectives and KPI (key performance indicator) but can reduce expenditure as well," he said at the 14th Premier Civil Service Dialogue in Putrajaya. – Bernama
