SINGAPORE: With changes brought about by COVID-19, the Government needs to re-evaluate its baseline spending to address risks and key vulnerabilities, said the Public Accounts Committee in a report on Wednesday .
These were some of the issues that could impact spending, laid out in its second report which was presented to Parliament on Wednesday ahead of this year's Budget statement on Feb 18. According to the committee, the Ministry of Finance said expenditure for initiatives under the Singapore Green Plan would be reported as part of the annual budgetary process.
Published in July last year, the AGO report - which covered all 16 government ministries and eight organs of state, 11 statutory boards, four government-owned companies and two other accounts - identified several lapses and weaknesses in procurement and contract management as well as IT controls across different public agencies.
