The Public Expenditure Framework (2012–2015)

Similarly, the PER of 2013 highlights that the major budget expenditures items continue to be in social, economic and community services. This is consistent with the Government’s commitment to ensure that sufficient resources are made available to the social sector in line with the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy paper (MGDS) II particularly in agriculture, health and education in order to meet the MDGs. Closely competing with social and community services are expenditures on general public services, which increased to 8.6 percent of GDP in the 2013/14 fiscal year from 6.7 percent in the 2012/13 fiscal year, accounting for the second largest share of the recurrent expenditure. Allocations to social-community services were 9.6 percent of GDP in the 2013/14 fiscal year. Despite the above, agriculture, health and education are the major stand-alone public expenditures items by sector. See Table 7.2 below.
