It is necessary to analyze the budget power during the budget process of the local council, paying attention to strengthening the capacity of local council and reinforcing expertise to secure accountability. The budget power of council is expressed in various terms such as power of the purse and the authority to control the budget, and focuses on the role of control and check in the council's budget process. The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors that political·administrative variables, social·economical variables affect the budget power of local council. The budget power of councils was set as the budget net modification rate and the period for processing the budget bill at the plenary session. And the effects of various variables were checked. As a result, the local council confirmed that there was a lack of checks and controls in the budget process.

Proposed increases to the government's R&D budget should be discussed based on merits of meeting efficiency and effectiveness criteria. The evaluation of the national R&D budget and related programs are performed in two areas: a system of R&D budget coordination and allocation, and a system of R&D program performance. This paper mainly focuses on the operational areas of R&D budget evaluation system with a focus on their impact to efficiency and effectiveness. The core view point for a R&D budget evaluation system involves two directions: Firstly, to detail the relationships between the later stage (ex. post) activities such as, program survey, analysis, and program performance evaluation, with the budget evaluation. Secondly, to critically oversee all R&D coordination procedures with a different perspective. Budgeting is generally known as a serial process of policy making, planning and executing. It is highly desirable for the budget to be allocated to, and spent by, specific programs as planned, and that each plan be aligned with a specific policy. As such, a strong relevance between the program structure and budget code system is integral to successful execution. It should be performed using a decision making system which closely examines the link between policy and budget. It is also recommended that systematic relationships be maintained among budget coordination and allocation, performance evaluations of policy and program levels, and program survey and analysis system, and that their operational schedule should be reviewed comprehensively as a one integrated system. The National Science and Technology Council is expected to play a major and practical role as the center of policy planning and should be supported by the objective and unbiased system which covers overall process from policy making to program evaluation. Finally, increased utilization of contents, timely program survey and analysis, and accurate of activity scheduling of budget coordination and allocation, and diligent program performance evaluation all contribute towards a more efficient and effective overall evaluation system.

Urban parks are important spaces of ecological and socio-cultural value to citizens who lead busy lives in increasingly complex and densely populated megalopolises. However, creating and maintaining city parks takes the will of the authorities to put it into practice and provide the attendant financial resources. That explains why we are focused on the budget aspects for the Seoul Metropolitan City in relation to creating park spaces. Our findings were as follows: 1) The overall city budget has steadily increased, but the budget allocated to Green Seoul Bureau and new park development has decreased since 2011. 2) As for elected officials, the budget grew during the time of the first, third, and fourth mayors as the creation of parks was considered to be a major priority, but after the sixth popularly elected mayor, the budget was sharply cut. 3) About 10% of the budget was allocated to the parks managed by the self-governing districts, compared to the ones under the direct management of the city. Furthermore, the analysis of the average annual budget for each park and how long (in terms of year) the budget for each park is invested showed that it was classified into three different types of category. Local governments adhere to the principle that their budget must be compiled and expended for a single year, which makes it hard to establish and push ahead with a long-term plan. However, as parks and green areas should not be approached from a short-term perspective for performance but from a long-term perspective, securing the consistent amount of budget is essential. This study has significance in that it attempted to analyze the budget issues related to parks, which has not been studied in depth so far, but the subject in this paper was limited to the budget for Green Seoul Bureau. Therefore, further research is needed because the parks managed by the self-governing districts were not considered.

Participatory budgeting has been introduced and proliferated with differentiated types by Local Finance Act which had been revised in 2011. This study aims to classify the types of Participatory Budgeting by participatory institutions and participatory levels and suggest the implications. We have reviewed the participatory budgeting operation ordinances, operating plans and operating systems of 243 local governments. And the participatory budgeting can be divided into five types. First, submission of opinion type found in 100 local governments is characterized by operating without participatory institutions. Second, commission type found in 85 local governments is characterized by having only participatory budgeting committee. Third, regional meeting type found in 21 local governments is characterized by having participatory budgeting committee and regional meeting or only regional committee. Fourth, public-private partnership type found in 30 local governments is characterized by having citizen-government meeting. Fifth, delegated power type found in 7 local governments is characterized by having policy fair or mobile voting, or both. Analysis showed that institutionalization levels of participatory budgeting is not high because many local governments(76.5%) are belong to submission of opinion type or commission type in South Korea. For developing participatory budgeting, participatory institutions, such as citizen-government meetings, policy fair or mobile voting, should be adopted and proliferated in more and more local governments.

Information security to use information technology(IT) in safety and reliability environment is becoming of great importance. In advanced countries including United States and United Kingdom are consistently expanding budget for information security. Korea also has been a growing interest in information security and Korea government announced plan to develop information security into next-generation growth engine. However, information security budget has increased slightly in recent years, so many national institutions and state governments have budget shortfall to perform information security work. Moreover budget items do not include generic contents about information security and there are confined to some security SW, HW and services. It is necessary to expand information security budget for enhancement national capabilities of information security. In this paper, we analyze the IT and information security budget situation for Korea and United States and propose effective budget expansion and improvement approaches for Korea.

This study is aimed to analyze problems of police budgetary execution and to suggest better ways for establishing effective budget implementation as well as legitimacy of securing budget in the field of police work. For this purpose, this paper analyzed the annual reports on police budgetary execution, from 2009 to 2012, conducted by National Assembly Budget Office. In result, most parts of the police budgetary execution were not satisfied with the audit standard, and especially in terms of management of budgetary execution, it showed 40% in inappropriateness. In addition, excessive and underestimate appropriation in the police budgetary execution, which happened frequently in other offices, was recorded on the second place. 10% of the amount of budget was executed for ordinance violence. Given results analyzed from each division, Transportation Division occupied 40% of the amount of related problems and all of types in the field did not meet the audit standard, thus it is required to manage budgetary execution effectively. In terms of Public Safety Division, the problem was related to budgetary allocation prior to execution, such as overlap in other works, excessive and underestimate appropriation, and inappropriate business plans. Director General for Planning and Coordination did not meet the standard of law system maintenance, Given the light of the result of analyzing programs, traffic safety and securing communication was the most problematic and support for police administration, crime prevention and protecting the disadvantaged, educating professional police officers, and establishment of policing infrastructure were required to be reformed in sequence. In order to resolve these problems, it is demanded to check budgetary execution and the process in business plans on a regular basis. Additionally, in case of using budget in inappropriate parts, tough penality including reduction of budget in related to the local police should be implemented to increase the importance of budgetary execution. Moreover, because of the fact that a part of problem of budgetary execution was originally caused by the budgetary allocation, it is advised to allocate police budget using the budget proposal of National Finance Act and Ministry of Strategy and Finance.
