In line with this important constitutional responsibility, the RAA is required to ascertain whether the public resources were used in an economic, efficient and effective manner. The Constituency Development Grant (CDG) was one of the important initiatives of the Government aimed towards deepening and strengthening democracy by establishing a basis for direct and regular interaction between the Members of the National Assembly (MNA) and their constituencies. The grant involving total allocation of Nu. 282 million for the last three financial years was primarily to support decentralization, strengthen local governments, and provide communities with access to small funds that are flexible and able to meet emergent and unplanned needs expeditiously. In this respect, the RAA not only looked at “what has been done”, but also looked at “what has not been done” to achieve the ultimate objective.

The Royal Audit Authority however, did not look into the merit or otherwise of the CDG Policy decision itself. In particular the audit was aimed

ISBN 978-99936-55-01-5 2 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Dagana Dzongkhag HIS MAJESTY THE KING JIGME KHESAR NAMGYEL WANGCHUCK 3 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Dagana Dzongkhag 4 Eleventh Five Year Plan - Dagana Dzongkhag Our Nation has seen great socio-economic growth but it is more important that we have growth with equity. We must raise, with all our effort, the less fortunate so that they may, at the earliest, begin to partake in the opportunities brought by modernization and progress. The government has provided education to our youth. But for the nation to prosper for all time, a sound education must be succeeded by access to the right jobs and responsibilities, so that our youth may bloom as individuals and at the same time serve their Nation well. The recent Rupee shortage is a serious problem. I feel it is a reminder that, as a Nation, we must exercise our traditional sense of caution and work even harder as we address the challenges of the time. For no matter what challenges lie ahead, it is only the Bhutanese citizen who can protect and safeguard Bhutan. - His Majesty The King’s address to the nation during the 105th National Day celebrations, 17th December 2012, in Thimphu.
