Committee of Supply 2022 debate, Day 1: Leong Mun Wai on presentation of expenditures
It is not easy to understand the expenditures in the Budget, which is necessary for considering whether they can be cut, before a decision is made to raise taxes, said NCMP Leong Mun Wai. He asked, for instance, if the S$100 billion spending on COVID-19 measures could be presented with a detailed breakdown by category and ministry. He also sought clarity on the amounts of revenues and investment returns. Mr Leong spoke in Parliament on Wednesday (Mar 2).
