Indranee Rajah wraps up Budget and Committee of Supply 2025 debates
A General Election must be called sometime this year - by November - and Budget 2025 is the last Budget of this “roller coaster” term, said Leader of the House Indranee Rajah. Wrapping up the debates on the Budget and Committee of Supply (COS) on Monday (Mar 10), she said the Budgets of 2024 and 2025 are about breathing life into the ideas co-created with Singaporeans under Forward Singapore and putting into motion the plans for a better and brighter tomorrow. This year is Singapore’s 60th year of independence and it is fortunate that it has surplus to share with all Singaporeans, she said. Over the past five years, the COS has worked extra hard, said Ms Indranee. This term, there was an average of more than 600 cuts filed for each COS, with an average of seven hours and 45 minutes of debates per sitting day across each Budget and COS season. This is the highest volume and the longest duration compared with any previous term, she said.
