Have budget funds allocated for mitigating corona crisis been spent in an open and accountable manner?

International Budget Partnership published the results of its research on openness and accountability when spending central government budgetary funds for alleviating COVID-19 crisis. The research covered the period between 1 March and 30 September 2020 and analysed 120 countries, including Croatia, whose fiscal measures that had been implemented for the purpose of mitigating healthcare and economic consequences of the crisis partially satisfied international standards of timely provision of information and consultation with interested stakeholders. The Government and the Parliament should, therefore, ensure that crisis measures are adopted and implemented in a more open and higher-quality manner. For instance, all details of public procurement contracts should, whenever possible, be published in machine readable form on relevant websites. In addition, members of the public should be allowed to take part in designing, adopting and implementing crisis measures.
