After the National Assembly and Senate approve the Draft Budget Law the King will promulgate this into law in December. This Enacted Budget or Budget (Financial) Law becomes the baseline information for all budget analyses conducted during the budget year. Thus, it is the starting point of any efforts made towards monitoring the execution of the budget. In general terms, the Enacted Budget should provide the public with the data it can use to assess the government’s stated policy priorities and hold it to account. Cambodia publishes Promulgated Budget Law or Annual Finance Law in the Governments Official Gazette and the MEF website (www.mef.gov.kh). However, this document does not disaggregate down to the programme level expenditure details.

The government has authority to start revenue collection and spending the proceeds between January and December of each year, following the adoption of the Budget Law.

The Budget Settlement Law 2008 will be available in 2011.
