government and the financials of stateowned enterprises, and making public
the criteria for all natural resource
tenders.
Uzbekistan: The budget process is not
transparent, as budget discussions in the
legislative branch are not open to the
public. Only a general overview of the
budget is publicly available; a
breakdown of revenues and
expenditures by ministry is not
disclosed. Information on revenue from
the extraction and sale of natural
resources is not available to the public.
While criteria for awarding natural
resource contracts are publicly
available, the process of awarding
contracts in practice is not transparent.
Uzbekistan’s fiscal transparency would
be enhanced by making the budget
publicly available. Uzbekistan’s fiscal
transparency would be further enhanced
by providing information on revenue
from the extraction and sale of natural
resources and ensuring the process of
awarding contracts is transparent.
Yemen: Yemen’s annual budget lacks
sufficient information regarding
allocations to and revenue from
significant state-owned enterprises. The
supreme audit institution does not
publish its annual verifications that
statements of revenues and
expenditures meet internationally
accepted accounting principles.
Yemen’s fiscal transparency would be
enhanced by providing sufficient detail
in the section of the budget devoted to
state-owned enterprises. Yemen’s fiscal
transparency would be further enhanced
if the supreme audit institution were to
make such audits public each year.
Zimbabwe: Zimbabwe’s budget lacks
transparency with regard to financial
flows to and from significant stateowned enterprises and with regard to
natural resource revenues, including
mining contracts. Zimbabwe’s fiscal
transparency would be enhanced by
improving transparency in its budget
management, including greater
transparency on the country’s debts, and
including a substantially complete
picture of natural resource revenues in
the budget. Zimbabwe’s fiscal
transparency would be further enhanced
by making public the criteria and
process for awarding natural resource
contracts and licenses and the basic
terms of those contracts, such as to
whom licenses have been awarded,
which resources are covered, and the
length of the contract or license.

2001, as amended by Executive Order
