PALOP-TL Regional Economic Governance Programme ¿ Boosting PFMS and Budget Oversight The EU funded PALOP-TL SAI programme has successfully fostered and consolidated innovative tools and a solid Community of Practices (CoP) of more than 20 core economic governance state institutions and CSO  platforms in the 6 PALOP-TL countries to promote transparent and efficient PFM, budget oversight and economic governance. This CoP has created a peer-to-peer association between similar country institutions that have spurred a degree of coordinated policymaking on transparency matters unmatched in most countries in the region. It has increased the quality and efficiency of EU policy dialogue, notably in countries with Budget Support operations, by providing critical, timely insider information, networks and connection to oversight institutions. This Action aims to consolidate and scale up these actions to continue promoting transparent, accountable and open budgetary cycles, as well as to further strengthen parliament, the court of auditors and citizens¿ capacities to monitor government budgets while proposing to enhance the oversight to other key areas such as fiscal/tax transparency and domestic resource mobilisation policies, notably using digital technologies. It will endeavour to strengthen its existing partnerships and build closer and durable associations  with European peer institutions. The programme also proposes to showcase successful tools and methods, such as the ¿Community of Practices¿, the recent ¿Digital Budget Transparency Platform¿ and the ¿Gender-responsive Budgeting and oversight integrated model¿ in other countries where they can be replicated, notably those with particularly prominent EU BS.
