This submission consolidates recommendations from Cambodian civil society organizations regarding the Draft Law on Finance and Property Management of Sub-National Administrations. It highlights the law’s significance in advancing fiscal decentralization, strengthening financial discipline, and improving accountability across sub‑national administrations. The document commends progress made by the Royal Government while proposing clearer provisions on intergovernmental transfers, external audit mechanisms, asset management, and medium‑term fiscal planning. It further emphasizes the need for citizen participation, gender‑responsive budgeting, and strong institutional coordination among MEF, MoI, and NCDD‑S. The inputs aim to support a more coherent legal framework that enhances transparency, equitable service delivery, and inclusive local governance aligned with the Organic Law and NP‑2.
