Amman: Minister of Finance, Abdul Hakim Shebli, stated that the issuance of Financial Order No. (2) for the year 2025 to ministries, public departments, and units aligns with the government's policies aimed at following up on spending processes based on the "highest" standards of "transparency and oversight."
According to Jordan News Agency, Shebli explained in a press statement that the disbursement of various financial orders, in accordance with monthly remittances certified by the Director General of the General Budget Department (GBD), would enable these entities to identify spending priorities on key target areas. This approach aligns with the Economic Modernization Vision (EMV) and the development of public services, allowing the Kingdom's regulatory authorities to track their spending methods in accordance with the priorities and restraints stated in the General Budget Law.
Shebli added that disbursement operations are conducted under a "strict" auditing process, adhering to regulations and instructions to avoid financial loss. This process ensures that spending supports the smooth implementation of capital projects under the budgets of ministries and state institutions while aligning with the government's "clear" policy aimed at reducing "unnecessary" expenditures and facilitating the follow-up process by various regulatory authorities.
The government's agenda reflects a "serious" commitment to combating all forms of spending loss and controlling processes to ensure the continued work, services, and implementation of its projects. The GBD and regulatory authorities will monitor disbursement operations and spending allocation methods for each entity, based on the "highest standards of transparency and clarity," Shebli emphasized.
