There is some drama building in Parliament already as Finance Minister, Dr Mohammed Amin Adam readies to present the much-anticipated Mid-Year Budget Review.
The session is yet to unfold without the presence of the Minority in Parliament, who have signaled their absence in protest over several unresolved issues.
The mid-year budget review, a crucial exercise in assessing the government’s fiscal policy and economic performance halfway through the year, aims to provide updates on revenue, expenditure, and other financial indicators.
It also offers an opportunity for the government to revise its economic strategies in response to prevailing conditions.
Majority side
But the only legislators on the floor are from the Majority side as of 1:35 pm, nearly four hours after the time advertised.
