Executive Summary
1. The Federal Government notified in September 2018 the formation of a Task Force
consisting of both officials as well as non-officials to come up with the recommendations for the
restructuring and reorganization of the Federal Government. The Task Force, assisted by the
Institutional Reforms cell in the Prime Minister’s office carried out a comprehensive assessment
of each organizational entity (OE) working under the Government of Pakistan.
2. The survey and assessment found that in all 441 organizational entities existed in the
Federal Government and these can be classified on the basis of their legal structure and
functional responsibilities into 18 different categories. Table 1 of the Report shows the existing
structure of these OEs. After the assessment and discussion it was decided that these 441 OEs
would be grouped into seven categories for further action. Only 324 OEs would be retained by
the Federal Government after taking action on the proposals made with respect to the other
117 OEs.
3. A draft working paper with the proposals suggesting future configuration, regrouping,
and mapping of each OE was circulated and discussed by the Secretaries Committee. Their
suggestions were incorporated and the revised proposals pertaining to the OEs under the
administrative control of each ministry were sent to the Minister in charge for their views. After
these consultations, deliberations and incorporation of the views an updated report was
prepared and along with the draft summary was sent to the Federal Cabinet for discussion and
decision.
Proposals
4. The 441 OES were divided into the following 7 categories for action purposes:
1
Recommendations
5. The Cabinet at its meeting held on July 9, 2019 decided in principle to approve the
recommendations that the Federal Government would retain 324 organizational entities under
two broad categories (i) Executive departments (87) and (ii) Autonomous bodies (237) and
action in respect to the remaining 117 entities would be taken according to the proposals (a) to
(f) above
6. The criteria, functions and powers of the autonomous bodies and executive
departments are also spelled out in Annex – 1 of the summary
Implementation Committee
7. Restructuring and reorganization of 441 OEs is likely to entail fulfillment of procedural and
legal formalities. It is therefore imperative to put in place a structured implementation and
follow-up mechanism
8. The Cabinet at its meeting constituted an Implementation Committee comprising the
following persons:
a. Adviser to the PM on Institutional Reforms & Austerity ( Convenor)
b. Minister for Defence
c. Minister for Education and Professional Training
d. Chairman, Special Committee of the National Assembly on Kashmir
e. Advisor to the PM on Establishment
f. Special Assistant to the PM on Petroleum
g. Secretary, Establishment Division
h. Secretary, Finance Division
i. Secretary, Law & Justice Division
j. Special Secretary, Cabinet Division
k. Secretary of the Ministry/ Division concerned (on invitation)
9. The committee will work out an implementation strategy/ work plan in consultation with
the Task Force taking into consideration
a) Cost benefit analysis specific to the entities concerned
b) Expected outcome of the proposed transformation with reference to service
delivery
c) Constitutional and legal ramifications/ considerations’
d) Issues pertaining to terms and conditions of civil servants and impact of the
reorganization exercise on career progression of existing civil servants
The Committee will complete the task within six months and present monthly
implementation progress to the Cabinet.

Introduction
1. The Federal Government currently consists of about 441 organizational entities
categorized under numerous attached departments, subordinate offices, autonomous
bodies, registered companies, statutory corporations etc. under the various Divisions/
Ministries. These entities collectively employ an approximate 1.128 million people.
Overtime the structure of these organizations has evolved in a haphazard and unchecked
manner often serving the vision of individuals while ignoring the needs of the State. The
expenditure of the government on the maintenance and operations of these entities as well
as on the salaries of their bloated ranks has not been in conjunction with the work being
done.
2. The list below depicts the general configuration of the Federal Government.
Background
3. Given the current inefficiencies of the prevailing structure, the Institutional
Reforms Cell (IRC) at the Prime Minister’s Officesolicited information from all Ministries and
Divisions on the different types of entities under their control. Subsequently and elaborate
mapping exercise was undertaken to propose reconfiguration of the existing OEs. After this
exhaustive exercise was undertaken, a working paper containing the detailed proposals was
discussed and deliberated upon by the Task Force on Austerity and Restructuring of
Government for incorporation of members’ views. The refined proposals were then
3
circulated, reviewed and discussed by the Secretaries Committee. The recommendations of
the Committee have been incorporated in the proposals (annex tables). The proposed
recommendations pertaining to each Ministry were then brought to the attention of the
Minister in charge for their comments and views which have also been reflected in the final
proposals contained in this report.
Principles of Reorganization
5. The organizing principles that this report proposes for reorganizing the Federal
Government and the Provincial Governments are: (a) efficient distribution of span of control
(b) clear delineation of roles/ responsibilities along with accountability (c) separation of
policy making, operational, implementation and regulatory functions of the Ministry (d)
reducing the hierarchical tiering and the turnover time for government business (e)
strengthening intra and inter-ministerial coordination and collaboration (f) empowering the
head of the Division, the head of the executing departments and the head of the
autonomous bodies to deliver agreed goals and results.

Proposed Reconfiguration of the Federal Government
7. In view of the objectives outlined above, the OEs working under the control of
different Divisions / Ministries have been divided into the following categories for action
purposes:
5
vii. To be retained by the Federal Government only in two broad categories as (i)
Executive Departments (87) and (ii) Autonomous Bodies (237)
8. The proposed recommendations are laid out from Annex 2 to 8 of this report,
whereas the mapping of the existing OEs for formulating the proposed configurations is
shown at Annex 9. The existing attached departments and subordinate offices have been
mapped separately from the existing autonomous bodies, registered companies, statutory
corporations etc. It is generally proposed to retain the attached departments and
subordinate offices as Executive Departments and the autonomous bodies, registered
companies, statutory corporations etc. are proposed to be categorized under one category
of Autonomous Bodies. As a result, the Federal Government would retain about 324
organizational entities under two broad categories (i) Executive Departments (87) and (ii)
Autonomous Bodies (237). The criteria, functions and powers of theExecutive Departments
and Autonomous Bodies after the proposed reorganization are spelled out in Annex1.
Conclusion
9. In light of the feedback received from all stakeholders, the report reflects the
consensus of views of different Ministries and Divisions as well as the Taskforce on Austerity
and Restructuring of Government.

Annex-1
Functions, Powers and Criteria for Autonomous Bodies and Executive Departments
1. Autonomous bodies (ABs) ---To be headed by the Chief Executive these bodies can be set up to
perform regulatory, operational, corporate, promotional, research and development or quasi-
judicial functions entrusted to them by the Government. At present most of the ABs have been
established through;
2. Their legal status—Statutory body, limited company, corporation would remain unchanged but
for administrative purposes, all such bodies would be classified as Autonomous bodies distinct
from the Executive departments (EDs).
3. The main criteria for deciding whether an entity would be an autonomous body or not
would be
a) the relative significance of the goals and objectives for which it has been set up,
c) its size and scale of operations, particularly the capacity to execute mega projects on
behalf the Government
e) its requirement to attract skills and expertise that are not normally available in the
government.
f) its business model as a fully owned state enterprise or partnership with the private
sector.
I
4. The employees of these autonomous bodies would not be treated as civil servants except
those on deputation from the Government and would not be remunerated according to the Basic
Pay Scales of the Government. Their terms and conditions will be determined under the rules
formulated by the Board of Directors. They will be recruited in a transparent and merit based
manner through an open, competitive process and they will be paid compensation packages as
determined by the respective Boards of Directors. Only in cases where the Government paying
subsidies, grants, loans or any financial assistance or is meeting the entire or partial expenditure
from its budget, these packages will be subject to the approval of the representative of the
Ministry of Finance on the Board. Where these bodies do not receive aid or financial support of
any kind from the Government these Boards will be fully authorized to determine the
Compensation packages for their employees. The guidelines and beneficiaries will be determined
by the Federal Government but there would be flexibility for the Boards to operate within these
guidelines. The terms and conditions of the existing employees working in these autonomous
bodies would not be altered to their disadvantage.
5. As a broad guiding principle all the existing corporate bodies established under an act of
legislation or Companies Ordinance or otherwise, all the regulatory bodies, all the tribunals or
quasi-judicial bodies, all research and development institutions of certain size and scale, all
training institutions of certain size and scale should function as autonomous bodies. The category
of semi autonomous bodies should be abolished and those classified in this category should either
become AB or ED. The ABs would have their Boards of Directors appointed by the Federal
Government and the membership would be drawn from persons who have demonstrated
eminence in their professions such as law, engineering, accountancy, economics and finance,
strategic management, academia, private sector, or other relevant disciplines. Due care should be
given to give adequate representation to all provinces in the selection of the Board members.
They should meet the criteria fit and proper as prescribed by the Federal Government.
6. The Board of ABs would have appropriate representation from the Federal Government
and these representatives should be empowered to convey the stated policy, position or stance
of the Federal Government at the Board meetings, articulate the views on behalf of the Federal
Government and fully participate in the deliberations of the Board. In cases where the Federal
Government has to make financial commitments a senior officer of the Ministry of Finance of the
status not less than Grade-21 should be member of the Board. He should be authorized, prior to
the meetings, to take positions on behalf of the Federal Government provided all papers for
discussion at the Board meeting are received at least 15 days prior to the meeting while those
requiring budgetary allocations at least one month in advance. In case where the entire or partial
expenditure is borne by the Government the representative of the Ministry of Finance on the
Board would carry veto powers in matters that commit or create future financial liabilities for the
Federal Government. No references should be made to the Ministry after the Board’s decision
except in the matters of budgetary allocations or approval of development schemes to the
Ministries. The Board, can however, appeal to the Ministry of Finance against the decision of
II
their representative on the Board. The normal procedure prescribed by the Government for
budget submissions and allocations and processing of development schemes will be followed by
the ABs only if they are seeking subsidies, grants, loans, equity injection grant-in-aid, financial
relief or guarantees or other types of financial assistance from the Government. In case they are
using their own financial resources the Board of Directors will have the final authority. The audit
of the ABs will be carried out both by the external auditors as well as the Auditor General of
Pakistan. For the purposes of the reports of AG and for appearances before the Public Accounts
Committee (PAC) the head of the AB will be fully accountable. He/she will serve as the Principal
Accounting Officer of the body he/she is heading.
7. The procurement of goods and services by ABs should be made in a transparent and
competitive manner. Wherever the standard rules of the Public Procurement Regulatory
Agency (PPRA) can be applied without difficulty they should be adopted and followed. In other
case the PPRA rules may be modified and adopted to suit the particular business needs of the
AB but the principle of open, transparent and competitive bidding should remain the
overarching principle.
8. The Federal Ministry under whose jurisdiction the AB falls will also enter into a
framework agreement at the beginning of the fiscal year specifying the goals and targets to be
achieved, the financial and human resources likely to be available and the key performance
indicators. The AB will prepare an Annual Performance Report that will be placed before the
Parliament.
9. All regulatory agencies would enjoy quasi-judicial powers and the Ministry concerned
will have no representation in the agency’s governance structure. The Ministry/ Division will
have no oversight or monitoring responsibility on the regulatory agency as carried out in case of
other autonomous bodies. All regulatory agencies except for the financial sector will be
clustered under the Cabinet Division. The Cabinet Division will only provide policy guidance as
approved by the Cabinet or the Committees of the Cabinet and ensure implementation of policy
by the ABs. All legislative and parliamentary business and international coordination activities
except of purely technical nature will be channeled through the Cabinet Division to the Prime
Minister/ Cabinet.
(i) That they form an integral part of the operations and implementation of Ministry’s
policies, programs and projects. They will be subject to all Government rules,
regulations, instructions, orders.
(ii) They are fully dependent for their finances and manpower on Government and
require constant guidance, collaboration and support from the Ministry, its agencies
or other parts of the Government.
III
11. Other existing entities such as subordinate offices should either be absorbed within the
Division or the Ministry if the nature of their work is policy support or transformed into
Executive departments if the content of their responsibilities are mainly operational
12. Executive Departments will report to the Ministry specifically to the Minister incharge
and the Secretary of the Division concerned. The Head of the Executive Department (ED) will
prepare an Annual Work Plan and Budget that will be reviewed and approved by the Ministry.
All operational decisions pertaining to the planning, programming, phasing, and resourcing of
the Executive Departments will be carried out by the head of the Executive Departments.
He/She will be delegated the powers of Principal Accounting Officer by the Secretary of the
Division and the budget for the department will be transferred to him at the beginning of the
year. The goals and targets assigned to the ED and the outcomes will be monitored by the
Minister and Secretary jointly and the HED will be held accountable for the results.
13. The Executive Department can commission expert advice on various issues from
different Ministries/ Divisions and from within the Division itself but the processing of files as a
matter of routine and seeking of prior approvals by the Ministry has snarled implementation,
circumscribed the operational autonomy of the departments, diffused the responsibilities and
accountabilities and led to inefficiencies, delays and a culture of indecisiveness and inaction.
14. The EDs should be delegated adequate financial and administrative powers to be able to
manage the resources assigned to them i.e financial, material and human and produce tangible
results. The introduction of 3 years rolling medium term budget will be highly useful in the
planning and facilitating the service delivery arrangements. The audit rules should be suitably
modified so that the responsibility for compliance with the financial rules, adherence to the
budgetary discipline and prudent use of resources lies with the head of the Executive
department and not the Secretary of the Division.
15. The introduction of collective responsibility of the Minister and Secretary in oversight,
policy guidance, monitoring and prescribing operational targets and holding the Head of
Department accountable for outcomes and results is likely to maintain adequate checks and
balances but will at the same time provide some spurt to the implementation machinery of the
Government which has remained weak so far and gets bogged down in multiple references and
clearances. The cost of indecision or delayed decision making would become apparent under
the proposed governance structure.
16. The employees of the Executive departments would continue to be governed by the
existing service conditions, rules and regulations.
