2022 RECURRENT BUDGET OVERVIEW

The theme for the 2022 budget is "Adapting to the new normal". This theme builds on the 2021 Budget theme of ‘embracing the new normal’ which was adopted after the first year of the Pandemic. We do not know how long COVID-19 will persist in our lives, or how severe its impacts will be in the future; however, the recent spread of new transmissible variants across the world suggests the virus will be in our lives for some years to come.
