Budget screening nears completion, Economy Ministry to forward 2027 development proposals to MoF

Economy Minister Akmal Nasrullah Mohd Nasir announced today that the Economy Ministry is nearing completion of its screening process for development expenditure proposals for 2027, which are expected to be forwarded to the Finance Ministry (MoF) by the middle of this month. This comes as part of preparations for the Second Rolling Plan (RP2) under the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP).

The Economy Ministry is currently in the final stage of Budget screening, with all processes anticipated to be completed by mid-month, according to Akmal. The ministry considers new allocations and reviews ongoing project requirements while preparing these proposals for the MoF. Akmal emphasized the importance of ensuring the government's programmes and objectives outlined in the 13MP are supported by adequate implementation capacity.

He highlighted some initiatives already approved under the First Rolling Plan (RP1), with further requirements to be considered in RP2, focusing on infrastructure and high-growth industries.
