Ecology, Environment and Sustainable Development in Indian Fiscal Federalism

Published By: MSE on eSS | Published Date: April, 25 , 2009

This paper argues that the incorporation of new references in the Thirteenth Finance Commission mandate relating to, 'ecology, environment and climate change' and 'quality of public expenditure' pose new challenges. The challenges arise because the operationalization of these items require various reforms-legal, administrative, costing, valuation, institutional, and monitoring which require political will as well as reorientation in public expenditure management techniques.
