WORKSHOP RATIONALE
The success of any organization rests upon the ability to adopt well organized Budgeting and adequate Budgetary Control System which are core planning functions designed to direct efforts, streamline activities and provide basis for evaluation of performance as well as avoiding indiscriminate spending of scarce fund and other resources .
