This meeting which is referred to as the Legislative Meeting, is the second meeting on the Parliamentary Calendar and is primarily focused on the legislative process, which is the procedure that a proposed law, or bill, goes through to become law in a Parliament.
The previous meeting, which was mainly a Budget approval meeting was dedicated to presentation and approval of the National Budget. One of the major highlights of the previous meeting was that the National Assembly rolled-out Sector Budget Analysis which was piloted in 2022 and 2023.
The introduction of Sector Budget Analysis facilitated the involvement of portfolio and general purposes committees in the scrutiny of budgets for Heads of Expenditure or sectors under their purview or as allocated by the Right Honourable Madam Speaker.
