The Minister of Finance, Dr. Mohammed Amin Adam has submitted the Expenditure in Advance of Appropriation for the first quarter of 2025 to Parliament.
The proposed mini-budget, totaling GH¢68.1 billion, aims to cover essential government expenses from January to March 2025.
This allocation ensures the smooth continuation of government operations until the incoming administration presents a full budget for the rest of the year. Among the key areas benefiting from the mini-budget are salaries for public sector workers, statutory payments, maintenance of critical infrastructure, and funding for social intervention programs.
The mini-budget is a constitutional requirement during a transition year to avoid fiscal disruptions.
After the submission, the document was referred by Second Deputy Speaker Andrew Asiamah Amoako to the Budget and Finance Committees for a detailed review. These committees will examine the figures and policies before submitting their report to the House for further debate and approval.
Parliament is scheduled to reconvene, when Dr. Amin Adam will formally present the budget to members.
Deliberations and discussions will follow thereafter.
