This report explores the committee-level scrutiny of expenditure, identifying specifically the role of the three financial committees and a sample of four oversight committees (the Finance Committee, the Education Committee, the Health and Family Welfare Committee, and the Committee on Posts and Telecommunication). It compiles the specific outputs of these committees for the last few years, finds out the implementation status of their decisions and suggests mechanisms which allow for better monitoring of such decisions as well as proposes new areas of work for the committees which could improve accountability and transparency of public expenditures.
