Parliament Budget Committee Approves Record MVR 49.8 Billion State Budget for 2024

The Parliament's Budget Committee approved a MVR 49.8 billion state budget for 2024 on Thursday, 7 December 2023, raising it by MVR 306 million above the Finance Ministry's initial MVR 49.5 billion proposal after reallocating funds across housing, infrastructure and ministry allocations. Total expenditure of MVR 49.8 billion against MVR 33.5 billion in grants and revenues leaves a MVR 16.3 billion deficit, funded partly by MVR 17.2 billion in borrowings and a planned MVR 771 million from green or blue bonds sold abroad.
