2022 budget: Senate gives committees November 24 deadline for reports submission

The Senate has directed its standing committees to compulsorily submit their reports to the Appropriation Committee on November 24, 2021.

This is contained in the approved timetable for the consideration of the 2022 Appropriation Bill released by the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Appropriation, Barau Jubril, after a meeting with all the standing committee chairmen in Abuja.

Barau told reporters that the meeting was in tandem with the guiding principle of budget hearing for chairmen of the standing committees who have been received copies of the guidelines for the 2022 budget hearings.

The timetable Barau released showed that the budget hearings and engagements with Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) by Appropriation sub-committees in the Senate will hold between October 18 and November 5, 2021.

The public hearing by the Appropriation Committee will hold on November 8 and 9, 2021, while submission and defence of budget reports by sub-committees will hold from November 10 to November 24, 2021.

The collation/harmonisation of reports by the Appropriations Committee will take place from November 25 to December 7, 2021.
