Finance Musakhel
District Accounts and Development Funds
An attempt has been made to gather data on government income collected in the Musakhel district and government expenditures spent in the district for the various levels of government. See in this context also paragraphs 4.3.4. (District Council) and 4.6. (Revenue Administration). The results, not complete and most probably not fully reliable, are given in the tables below.
With all its shortcomings, the tables allow a number of conclusions to be drawn:

Development Funds
The previous paragraph has made it clear that funds for social and economic development have to come from outside Musakhel.
The most important source of finance for developmental activities is the provincial Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP).
The revised allocation in the PSDP for the financial year 1995-95 amounted to Rs. 3,615 million for 5 projects in Musakhel. None of these projects had a foreign assistance component. In the next year (1996-97), the allocation decreased to Rs. 1 million, to be spent on one project.
The PSDP for 1997-98 gives a much different picture. The number of schemes increased to 17, while the total allocation is Rs. 49,794 million, including a foreign aid component of Rs. 28,854 million. The projects include those projects located in the district and those with a provincial wide character that have activities in the district.
These figures have to be treated with some caution however, since it is not certain whether the provincial government can secure enough finances to underwrite the whole PSDP.
The projects mentioned in the PSDP 1997-98 are in the following sectors: forestry, roads, secondary and college education, drinking water, education (as part of the Social Action Programme) and health (SAP). The total of non-SAP sectors amounts to Rs. 38,302 million (77%), which leaves 23% for SAP.
The biggest share by far is earmarked for roads (Rs. 32,5 million, or 65%), followed at some distance by health activities in the SAP sector (Rs. 7,702, or 15,5%).
