Senegal parliament committee will review a revised budget crucial for a new IMF program. Finance Minister requested the review after the commission initially rejected the bill.
Senegal's parliamentary finance committee will review a rejected amended budget crucial for securing a new IMF program, National Assembly President Ousmane Sonko said on Tuesday afternoon. The reconsideration follows a direct request from Finance Minister Cheikh Diba during a Tuesday debate. The legislative turnaround is vital to unlocking international financial assistance after previous misreported borrowing pushed the nation's debt burden to 132% of GDP by the end of 2024.
