The recently constituted National Council has decided to introduce Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to measure the performance of government institutions.
The decision was taken at the meeting of the National Council’s Sub-Committee on Identifying Priorities in Formulating Short, Medium, and Long-Term Policies held under the chairmanship of MP Namal Rajapakse on Wednesday (26).
According to the Parliament of Sri Lanka, in order to streamline the government mechanism efficiently, the committee emphasized the need to prepare metrics to review the progress of government agencies and government officials.
Thus, it was decided to discuss this matter with all the other services including the administrative service in the next week and start formulating policies.
Officials representing the Ministry of Public Administration, Home Affairs and Provincial Councils and Local Government, and the Sri Lanka Administrative Service Association were present at this meeting.
State Minister Ashoka Priyantha, Members of Parliament Pavitra Vanniarachchi, Vajira Abeywardena, and Sagara Kariyawasam were also present. (NewsWire)
