Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>The Minister of finance and Economic Planning, Yusuf Murangwa, is set to officially present the budget framework paper (BFP), which outlines the proposed spending priorities for the fiscal year 2025\/2026 in parliament today.<\/p>\n

In January, the government proposed to raise the annual national budget from Rwf5,690.1 billion that was allocated for 2024\/2025, to Rwf5,816.4 billion for the 2025\/2026 budget, an increase of Rwf126.3 billion.<\/p>\n

The proposed increase in the 2025\/2026 budget was based on the needs of the previous fiscal year so that they are effectively met.<\/p>\n

The Minister of Finance told the MPs at the time that the increase in pension contributions, salaries, agriculture, and infrastructure will account for a bigger share of the resources.<\/p>\n

The previous budget (2024\/2025) had more than Rwf5,690.1 billion, an increase of 11.2 percent from the 2023 budget.<\/p>\n

In current fiscal year, the government has been implementing a budget worth Rwef5,690.1 billion, an 11.2 per cent increase from the prior fiscal year.<\/p>\n

It focused on sustaining economic growth, bolster climate change mitigation efforts, and fund crucial investments in agriculture, private sector development, youth employment, energy, ICT, transport, and financial development.<\/p>\n

It also aimed at speeding up the implementation of key projects in priority sectors such as health, education, disaster management, social protection, governance, justice, and reconciliation.<\/p>\n
