The following is a news flash 2024/01 published by the PAGSA on January 18, 2024 regarding the 2024 Budget Review date.

2024 BUDGET REVIEW DATE

The Budget Review is normally presented on the last Wednesday of February every year.

However, in a year when the Budget Review date is very close to 1st March, there is very little time in which payroll suppliers can implement those requirements of the budget that are legally effective from 1st March.

When this situation has arisen in the past, we have requested that an exception be made to present the Budget on the second last Wednesday of February, and our request has been acceded to (no doubt with the support of other parties).

The latest PARLIAMENTARY PROGRAMME FRAMEWORK FOR 2024 has been issued and confirms that the 2024 Budget Review will be presented on Wednesday 21 February 2024.
