Finance Ministry Reports 21.5% Drop in Ministry Expenses
Reports from the Ministry of Finance have shown that the operational expenses of government ministries decreased by 21.5% during the first nine months of this year. This reduction amounts to approximately 94 million dinars out of a total allocation of 437.1 million dinars, compared to the full allocation for this year, which was 582.8 million dinars. This savings resulted from the adoption of measures aimed at controlling spending and streamlining operations, including reductions in categories such as rent, insurance, communication services, and electricity. Significant savings were particularly evident in digitization efforts, with 45.2% in office supplies, 28.9% in electricity, and 27.8% in building usage. Projects like the electronic pharmaceutical inventory management system achieved savings of 3.099 million dinars in less than seven months. Additionally, energy consumption was reduced through the smart lighting system in Amman, which cuts energy use by up to 50%. Efforts to consolidate government institutions and improve resource management contributed to lowering operational costs and enhancing service quality.
