The Budget Appropriation Bill for 2023 will be tabled in Parliament today (14) by President Ranil Wickremesinghe in his capacity as the Minister of Finance.
Accordingly, the President’s Budget speech will commence at 01.30 pm this afternoon.
The orientation towards which the country’s economic crisis can overcome in a stable and long-term economic development is expected to be adapted via the Budget, and it will be very critical for Sri Lanka given that the fiscal allocations for the upcoming year must focus on the low-income families, who are the most aggrieved amidst the recession.
The debate on the second reading of the Budget will commence tomorrow (15) and a vote will follow on November 22.
The debate at the Working Committee phase will be held from November 23 to December 08, and a final vote will be held on December 08.
