The Ministry of Finance has announced that the national budget will be presented to the National Assembly on Monday, 16th January by Finance Minister Dr. Ashni Singh.

According to the Finance Ministry, the Minister has been consulting with a number of stakeholders over the past few months as part of his budget preparations.
