Post-Budget Analysis
Committee Meetings Open to the Public: Tuesday 14th and Wednesday 15th
January
The Minister of Finance presented the 2014 National Budget Statement in
Parliament on 19th December 2013.  Both Houses then adjourned until Tuesday
21st January.  [The Budget statement and the Estimates of Expenditure for
2014 - the "Blue Book" - are available from Veritas - see addresses below.]
MPs will spend the coming week in intensive meetings in preparation for the
National Assembly debate that will commence when the Assembly resumes
sitting on Tuesday 21st January.  They will start with a Post-Budget Seminar
on Monday 13th January, followed by four days of portfolio committee
meetings.   Each committee will analyse the Budget as it affects the
Ministries/sectors that it oversees, and then prepare a report to be
presented by the committee chairperson during the debate in the Assembly.  
Each committee will have two meetings:
.        the first meeting [on Tuesday or Wednesday] will be to analyse the
Budget proposals.; this will be done with the assistance of officials of the
Ministries concerned and recognised stakeholders.  This meeting will be open
to the public, but as observers only, not as participants.  Details are set
out below.
.        the second meeting [on Thursday or Friday and not open to the
public] will be for deliberations and preparation of the committee's report.
