2016 draft regulations, performance component data presented in the Annexes Annual Performance Report (APR) (PLR 2016)

The LOLF (Organizational Act of 1 August 2001 on Finance Laws), which introduced new rules for the preparation and implementation of the State budget, has also introduced a performance approach to improve the effectiveness of public policies. This is why new tools have been created to measure public performance objectively. Each programme involves objectives, defined at national level and defined in operational objectives for the services and operators implementing the policies. For each objective, concrete, relevant and reliable indicators objective the results of the policies pursued. These indicators are accompanied by targets, on which programme managers commit themselves to increasing the effectiveness and efficiency of their actions. In order to meet the expectations of all — citizens, users and taxpayers — the administration has thus set three types of objectives, addressing socio-economic issues, quality of service and management efficiency. In this context, the Annual Performance Reports (APRs) present the performance of the administrations in relation to the commitments made under the original Finance Act. They make it possible, in particular, to report on the results achieved by public policies financed by the State by comparing, ex post, the results with regard to the commitments made in the annual performance projects (PAPs) contained in the budgetary “blues” per mission. This database is extracted from the “Farandole” application, a budget input tool used jointly by the Budget Directorate and the Ministries and adapted to the production of budget documents. It presents all missions and programs, as well as the associated objectives and indicators, which are included in the performance component of the PARs appended to the 2016 draft regulation. These documents are available on the Public Performance website at the following address: <HTTPS://WWW.PERFORMANCE-PUBLIQUE.BUDGET.GOUV.FR/DOCUMENTS-BUDGETAIRES/LOIS-PROJETS-LOIS-DOCUMENTS-ANNEXES-ANNEE/EXERCICE-2016/PROJET-LOI-REGLEMENT-RAP-2016-BG#RESULTAT> The performance measurement scheme is part of a multi-annual perspective in relation to the three-year temporality of the State budget, presenting the achievements on the one hand and the forecasts on the other. Thus, for the RAP 2016 is associated with each indicator a set of values with the target to be reached in 2017, which corresponds to the last year of the triennial period 2015-2017 and the initial and updated realisation and forecast for 2016. In addition, the achievement values in 2014 and 2015 allow for a multi-year vision of the evolution of the indicator.
