Organic Law 18/15 plays an important role in improving the performance of the public sector in Algeria, as it is a mechanism for establishing governance principles in the management of public funds, starting with the renewal of its fundamental legal framework. This is done by reviewing the basic law 84/17, which no longer aligns with the current economic and political realities, as well as the developments in public management, and replacing it with the Organic Law on Finance Laws (LOLF), which incorporates principles of managing the public budget based on results rather than methods, as is currently practiced. It also establishes the principle of holding managers accountable by granting them greater freedom in management, in exchange for taking on greater responsibility before the parliament and the people. To clarify how the public budget is managed according to these principles, our research paper examines a specific project within the Directorate of Vocational Training and Apprenticeship, and how it is monitored and followed by the Directorate of Programming and Budget Monitoring throughout all stages of the project, from the financial coverage order to the closure order.
