预算权的相互制衡是我国行政管理体制改革的关键

The Mutual Constraint and Balance of Budget Power is the Key to Government System Reform

改革开放以来我国历次行政管理体制的改革都取得了一些阶段性的成果,但有些根本性问题依然没有得到有效解决。究其原因,笔者以为,改革中政府职能调整是手段,建立高效、优化、负责的服务型政府是目的,而唯独缺乏的是条件,即没有相互制衡的预算权,这样就不可能使得这些改革成果得到巩固,也不可能真正建立决策、执行和监督相互制约的高效的行政管理体制。

Since the reform and opening policy, China has experienced several reforms and have made some progresses. But some key problems still exist. Why？ The anther thinks that while adjusting government functions is only the means, and establishing service - oriented government of high - efficiency, optimization and responsibility is our target, we do not have the prerequisite of budget power with mutual constraint and balance. Because power has not yet been separated into legislative, executive and supervisory branches, and many departments still have the authority to set their own budgets, it＇s difficult for us to con- trol the fiscal headstream. Only after we establish the budget system with mutual constraint and balance will there be the pos- sibility to finally solve those problems in government system.
