Abstract: The focus of this paper is on inter governmental resource transfers. The question of these transfers crops up because of an asymmetry between revenues and expenditures. Since the federal government earns 90% of the revenues, while the provincial governments spend 25% of the revenues, this calls for transfers from the federal to the provincial governments under the aegis of the National Finance Commission. The allocations through the NFC have increased substantively over time.
