Calle: ‘Nothing sinister about budget delay’

Calle: ‘Nothing sinister about budget delay’ Finance minister Calle Schlettwein told Market Watch this morning that the tabling of the 2019/20 national budget has been moved to 27 March purely for logistical reasons.
“There is nothing sinister about it,” Schlettwein said.
Originally Schlettwein was expected to table the new budget on 13 March. The date was then moved to 19 March.
Schlettwein said the 27th was the “final” date.
The new fiscal year starts on 1 April.
