Sarawak budget to be tabled at final state assembly meeting
A supply bill for 2027 and a supplementary budget for 2026 would be among four bills to be tabled.
The Sarawak state assembly is scheduled to convene from October 12th to 21st for its final meeting of the year. Among the four bills to be presented during this session are the 2027 budget and a supplementary budget for 2026, which will be introduced by Deputy Premier Douglas Uggah Embas in the form of supply bills. Additionally, the Sarawak State Library (Amendment) Bill and the Public Holidays (Amendment) Bill will also be tabled.
The amendments to the Sarawak State Library Ordinance aim to streamline governance and create a memorial archive to preserve materials related to prominent figures, events, heritage, culture, and history of Sarawak. The amendments to the Public Holidays Ordinance are intended to clarify the process for replacing holidays when two public holidays occur on the same day.
With the state assembly's term concluding at the end of the year, elections are required to be held by mid-February.
