## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

## (SMT. SMRITI ZUBIN IRANI)

(a): Details of State/UT and year-wise central share released under Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan (SSA) and  Rashtriya  Madhyamik  Siksha  Abhiyan  (RMSA)  during  the  last  three  years  and  the  current  year  and expenditure reported by States/UTs are at Annexure.

(b): Allocation of outlays of the States and UTs under SSA and RMSA are made on the basis of the approved Annual Work Plans and Budgets (AWP&B) prepared by the States based on their requirements and priority.    Funds  are  released  to  States  /UTs  as  per  the  approved  AWP&B  for  each  year  in  two  or  more installments, depending on the opening balance with State/UT, release of commensurate State share, pace of expenditure, submission of audit reports and other such criteria laid down in the schemes. The Department has developed  Manuals  on  Financial  Management  &  Procurement  for  SSA  and  RMSA  to  streamline  financial management under these schemes. The Manual contains detailed procedures on financial management such as accounting, fund flow arrangements, financial reporting, internal controls and audit, external audit, procurement  procedure,  etc.  The  provisions  of  the  Manual  have  been  adopted  by  State  SSA  and  RMSA Societies.  The  implementation  of  the  provision  of  the  Manual  is  regularly  reviewed  in  quarterly  review meetings  taken  by  the  Ministry.    There  is  a  mandatory  provision  of  conducting  audit  by  Comptroller  and Auditor General of India of the programmes. SSA and RMSA accounts of States/UTs are regularly audited by the State Accountant Generals (AGs).

(c): The implementation of SSA is reviewed twice every year by the Joint Review Mission (JRM) comprising independent experts and external funding agencies covering States. The latest JRM was held from 2 nd to 16 th December, 2015. The Ministry of Human Resource Development convenes periodic meetings with State  Education  Secretaries  to  review  the  programme  implementation.    Educational  data  on  outcomes  is collected through a Unified District Implementation System of Education (UDISE) every year.  The status of these evaluations and monitoring is placed in the public domain on the Ministry's website.

(d): It has been decided that the fund sharing pattern of SSA, RMSA and Mid-Day Meal (MDM) Schemes will be in the ratio of 60:40 between the Centre and States; and 90:10 for the 8 North-Eastern States of  Arunachal  Pradesh,  Assam,  Manipur,  Meghalaya,  Mizoram,  Nagaland,  Sikkim  and  Tripura  and  3 Himalayan States of Jammu Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttrakhand with effect from the year 2015-16. The  changes  in  the  fund  sharing  pattern  are  based  on  the  report  of  the  Sub-Group  of  Chief  Ministers  on Rationalization  of  Centrally  Sponsored  Schemes  constituted  by  the  National  Institution  for  Transforming India (NITI) Aayog.

With the acceptance of the recommendation of the 14th Finance Commission (FFC) by Government of India,  the  devolution  to  the  States  has  increased  from  32%  to  42%  of  the  net  Union  Tax  Receipts.    It  is estimated that this entails devolution of additional resources to States as untied funds. Therefore, the changes would not adversely affect the impact of such schemes in the States.   The Budget Estimates for the year 2015-16 in respect of SSA, RMSA and MDM are Rs. 22000.00 crore, Rs. 3565.00 crore and Rs. 9236.40 crore, respectively.
