A long-overdue budget for the current financial year remains unresolved, with officials failing to meet the legally mandated deadline set months ago. The delay raises concerns over financial planning and resource allocation, leaving key decisions in limbo. Authorities have yet to provide an explanation for the postponement, leaving stakeholders and the public in the dark. Without a budget in place, the stability of public services and economic policies hangs in uncertainty.


Some six months have passed since the executive should have set a budget for this financial year.
