Asaba – DELTA State Commissioner for Economic Planning, Mr. Kenneth Okpara, has said that plans are underway to ensure that the State Ministry of Finance digitally synchronises its activities with his ministry to ensure effective budgetary system.

Okpara said: “At the end of the day what the Ministry of Finance is doing should be able to tally with what we have in Economic Planning.

“This control, may not have worked in the past, but we will ensure that is works and when we have this in place we would be able to have an effective budgetary system in the state.”

He also disclosed that his ministry would henceforth ensure that ministries are subjected to quarterly review.

He pointed out that when a quarter of the year ends, “the ministry will give its reports on its physical and financial progress.”
