ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to
examine the impact of budgeting and budgetary control on the performance of
local governments' institutions. (A case of Ikwuano Local Government).
Generally, as was confirmed by the references of some previous research work,
organizations flourish and perform better when they establish budgets and work
towards attaining them, since resources are scarce. However, in recent years, local
government's performance has been unsatisfactory and unproductive. Therefore,
in order to ascertain whether the budgets and budgetary control system of local
governments are responsible for such negative developments, the researcher set
out to examine the subject matter. This in turn, prompted the adoption of some
methods and techniques. This included sampling procedure, the use of
questionnaires, and review of approved estimates and actual of the Local
government. The findings obtained showed that, though local governments make
budgets, they lack effective budgetary control systems which has accounted for
the low performances (actual revenues• and expenditures). Hence, in conclusion,
local government will function much better, if their budgets and budgetary
control system were dependent on the goodwill and cooperation of its
participants. I therefore recommended that staffs as well as heads of
department be acquainted with budgetary control system, as well as establishing
ground rules for budgetary implementation which should be observed strictly.
