Details

There is evidence that Sudan has an annual budget that is prepared in a formal format and gets approved by the Cabinet ( http://www.sudan.gov.sd/index.php/ar/events/details/1/789/%D9%85%D8%AC%D9%84%D8%B3-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%88%D8%B2%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%A1-%D9%8A%D8%AC%D9%8A%D8%B2-%D9%85%D8%B4%D8%B1%D9%88%D8%B9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%85%D9%88%D8%A7%D8%B2%D9%86%D8%A9-%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%A9-%D9%84%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D9%85-2015%D9%85#.VgaVFo9Viko ), but it could not be determined in what format it is available or if available online at all. The website of the Ministry of Finance of Sudan could not be found and the website of the Central Bank of Sudan ( http://www.cbos.gov.sd/ ) is offline.

Budgets are supposed to be found here, http://www.mof.gov.sd/doc_view... but links not working.

Reviewer comments

I have added the comment about the budget resources. Links to the digital forms of the budget are not working, therefore I marked publicly available as 'NO'.
