A legislative committee has opened public hearings on the proposed national budget framework, inviting ministries, business groups and civil society to present their views.
The chairman said the hearings will run for two weeks and that written submissions will also be accepted from members of the public.
Issues expected to dominate
- Spending on roads, rail and power
- Funding for health and education
- Debt service and revenue targets
Civil society groups said they will press for clearer publication of project lists and costs, so that citizens can track spending in their communities.
