Finance Minister Dr Cassiel Ato Forson requested the 2027 Budget Statement and Economic Policy be presented in the evening to Parliament, according to Speaker Alban Bagbin.
Bagbin announced on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, that the Budget would be unveiled at 6 pm on Thursday, November 12. He explained that he had granted the Minister's request, citing the reasons he provided.
