2025 MEDIUM-TERM BUDGET POLICY STATEMENT BY MINISTER OF FINANCE MR ENOCH GODONGWANA
The Minister of Finance, Mr Enoch Godongwana, will deliver the Medium-Term Budget Policy Statement (MTBPS) to the Members of the National Assembly (NA) at the Good Hope Chamber in Parliament on Wednesday, 12 November, at 14h00.
The MTBPS plays a critical role in the overall budget process, as it sets out the policy framework for the budget that is presented every February. It also provides the country and its elected representatives with an update on National Treasury’s economic forecasts, adjusts the budgets of government department and makes emergency changes to spending.
The MTBPS makes it possible for Parliament and the public to interact with the government's budget through committee oversight over government departments, when committees review the effective and efficient use of available resources. The process is known as the Budget Review and Recommendations Reports, which must be tabled in the National Assembly before the MTBPS reports are adopted.
At the same NA sitting, the Minister is also scheduled to table the Adjustments Appropriation Bill, the Rates and Monetary Amounts and Amendment of Revenue Laws Bill, the Taxation Laws Amendment Bill, the Division of Revenue Amendment Bill and the Tax Administration Laws Amendment Bill.
