Update National Planning Department and National Budget Department Guidelines and Operationalize Climate Budget Tagging.( This tender is open only for companies Registered in Sri Lanka)In 2025, the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development (MoF) initiated climate-tagging through the Budget Call Circular (Annexure IV), requesting line ministries to classify their projects under adaptation, mitigation, and loss & damage. The MoF with the support of UNDP Sri Lanka, through the regionally initiated Climate Finance Network Project funded by the Climate Action for Resilient Asia (CARA) programme of the Government of the United Kingdom recently designed a comprehensive Climate Budget Tagging (CBT) system to align national public finance with the country’s climate policy commitments. Through this, the CBT typology, weighting system and coding approach was established guiding how climate-related expenditures are identified, classified, and reported across government.To advance operationalisation, the next essential step is to integrate CBT design into the core public financial management (PFM) architecture. This assignment therefore focuses specifically on drafting and revising the National Planning Department (NPD) guidelines and National Budget Department (NBD) budget preparation guidelines, ensuring that climate tagging is systematically embedded into project appraisal, budget formulation, and submission processesThe development of robust CBT systems is critical for modern climate-responsive public finance management.
