The Minister for Finance is scheduled to present the 2027 Budget Statement and Economic Policy of the Government to Parliament at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, November 12, 2026.
A notice issued by Parliament’s Media Relations Department announced the date and time for the presentation, which is expected to outline the government’s fiscal strategy, expenditure priorities and economic policy direction for the 2027 financial year.
The budget presentation follows an earlier announcement by the Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin, that the House would hold an evening sitting to accommodate the exercise and provide Members of Parliament sufficient time to prepare for the important national event.
The annual budget statement is one of the most significant parliamentary proceedings, as it sets out government plans for revenue mobilisation, public spending, economic growth and social interventions for the coming year.
The presentation is expected to attract considerable interest from lawmakers, businesses, investors, labour groups and the general public, who will be looking for policy measures aimed at sustaining economic growth, creating jobs and addressing key development challenges.
Following the presentation, Parliament is expected to begin deliberations on the budget estimates and the policy proposals contained in the statement before their eventual approval.
The 2027 Budget Statement will provide a comprehensive outline of the government’s financial and economic priorities and serve as a roadmap for public sector expenditure and development programmes in the year ahead.
