2019 Budget Process begins

Because of the 'political crisis' of 2017-2018, the VIII Constitutional Government was not formed until June 2018, and the General State Budget for 2018 was not promulgated until 27 September 2018. As a result, the process of designing and enacting the 2019 State Budget is delayed, as allowed by the Budget and Financial Management Law when a new Government comes into office.

As in the last several years, the Ministry of Finance held a Jornadas Orçamentais (Budget Days) workshop on 12-18 September 2018 to discuss program and budgeting for 2019. La'o Hamutuk and others outside the government were invited for the last two days. Download the Ministry's presentations (in Tetum) here.

At the Council of Ministers meeting on 21 September, the acting Minister of Finance presented three budget scenarios, and the Government chose the highest one, with a budget ceiling of $1.44 billion (including borrowing) for 2019, comprised of:

  • $200 million for salaries and benefits (same as in the proposed 2018 budget)

  • $305m for goods and services (28% less than in 2018)

  • $622m for public transfers (137% more than in 2018)

  • $     4m for minor capital (same as 2018)

  • $219m for development capital (without borrowing) (34% less than 2018)

  • $  87m in borrowed money for development capital (41% more)

As in past years, these numbers changed as the Government developed its budget proposal and incorporated the Sunrise buyout. In the first step, the Ministry of Finance oriented the ministries on 25 September. Each ministry is to submit its budget proposal and Action Plan to the Ministry of Finance by 12 October, so that the complete Budget Proposal can be presented to Parliament on 8 November.

The Council of Ministers continued to discuss the budget at subsequent meetings. On 3 October, they appointed a Policy Review Committee, comprised of the Prime Minister and six other ministers, to assess the feasibility of plans for 2019. The Committee held a preliminary meeting on 19 October and met again on 22-27 October with each state institution.

On 22 October, Vice-Minister of Finance Sara Lobo Brites announced that the budget will be more than previously described, but she would not give a number.  In addition to more money for education, health and other government priorities, the budget is likely to include $350 million to buy ConocoPhillips' share of the Greater Sunrise project, as described by TimorGAP President Francisco Monteiro. He said that he Ministry of Petroleum and Minerals is asking for $374 million in the 2019 State Budget. The $24 million above the Sunrise purchase is much more than its annual allocations in 2013-2018, which were $9.1, $11.9, $13.9, $12.5, $17.4 and $12.8 million respectively.

On 29 October, the Budget Policy Review Committee finished its preliminary proposal, as reported by the Ministry of Finance, for a total 2019 budget of $1.35 billion, including $350 million to purchase ConocoPhillips 30% share of the Sunrise contract. However, Independente reported that the Budget Director-General of State Finances said that the Council of Ministers might add $300 million more, as the $1.35 million included only $600 million for Line Ministries.

On 30 October, La'o Hamutuk and FONGTIL hosted a public meeting on the 2019 State Budget, which was reported by Tatoli and included presentations by La'o Hamutuk and the Secretary of State for Social Communications.

Also on 30 October, the Prime Minister issued a Budget Circular encouraging all government agencies to help prepare the budget, and the next day the acting Minister of Finance presented the proposed budget to the Council of Ministers.

The 2019 budget grew rapidly. On 4 November, GMN cited Minister Agio Pereira that the budget could be as much as $2 billion. At its 6 November meeting, the Council of Ministers discussed a proposed 2019 budget of $1.827 billion (including loans), as also reported by the Ministry of Finance.

Proposed Budget sent to Parliament and passed

The Council approved the budget on 7 November, and the proposed budget law was presented to Parliament the next day, with a cover letter and a memo from Parliamentary staff.

The total proposed budget for 2019 is $1.827 billion (including borrowing), comprised of:

  • $214 million for salaries and benefits

  • $478m for goods and services)

  • $705m for public transfers (including $350m for Sunrise)

  • $  29m for minor capital

  • $313m for development capital (without borrowing)

  • $  87m in borrowed money for development capital

Parliament quickly established a calendar and a schedule of public hearings, but this was suspended for a week after the first two days, as Government had not yet submitted most of the supporting documents.

On 22 November, the Ministry of Finance provided all the budget books, which can be downloaded from lower on this web page. Parliament issued a new calendar for the remaining hearings.

On 29 November, Committee C heard testimony from several civil society groups coordinated by the NGO Forum, including La'o Hamutuk, the Core Group on Transparency, Rede Feto, Hasatil and Klibur Hadomi Natureza (Tetum except for La'o Hamutuk's). The Asian Development Bank also made a presentation.

The plenary debate on the budget began on 6 December (PN summary) with a speech by Prime Minister Taur Matan Ruak (Tetum or Portuguese) and the reading of the Report from Parliament Committee C (Portuguese), which included the Economic Committee's recommendations for a credible, independent study on Greater Sunrise and alternatives. On 10 December (PN summary), Fretilin gave their response, along with the Partidu Demokratiku. The debate continued on 11 December (PN summary). After hearing from CNRT on the morning of 12 December, the budget was approved in generality by a 40-25 vote, as reported by Parliament, the Ministry of Finance and LUSA.

The plenary discussion on budget details began on the afternoon of 12 December and will go to 22 December. They have received dozens of proposed amendments, which we have compiled in a 165-page, 12 MB PDF.

During the budget debate, Government distributed a USB memory stick to members of Parliament, which included:

Fretilin explained their opposition to including $350 million for ConocoPhillips in the 2019 budget.

On 20 December, Parliament approved an amendment to add $300 million to the budget for purchasing Shell's participation in the Sunrise Joint Venture, bringing the total budget to more than $2.1 billion.

After each day's debate, Parliament publishes a summary in Portuguese and Tetum, but without specifics of votes on proposed amendments. Read these summaries for 13 December, 14 Dec, 15 Dec, 17 Dec, 18 Dec, 19 Dec and 20 Dec. Parliament compiled the daily reports in a monthly Informational Bulletin.

At an extraordinary plenary session on Saturday, 22 December, Fretilin explained why they would vote against the budget. Prime Minister Taur Matan Ruak addressed Parliament (Port.) prior to the final vote on the budget, which had been increased to $2.132 billion. Parliament then voted 40-25 to approve the budget. After technical editing, it was sent to the President of the Republic on 24 December, and he has 30 days to promulgate or veto. The passage was announced by the Prime Minister's office, Government and Parliament.

The total enacted budget for 2019 is comprised of:

  • $   214 million for salaries and benefits

  • $   473m for goods and services)

  • $1,013m for public transfers (including $650m for Sunrise)

  • $     31m for minor capital

  • $   313m for development capital (excluding borrowing)

  • $     87m in borrowed money for development capital

It will be financed largely by transferring $1.846 billion from the Petroleum Fund, the largest withdrawal in history.

On the President's desk

President Francisco Guterres Lu-Olo received the Parliamentary decree (plus annexes) on the budget law on 24 December. He recognizes that it is very important and presents difficult decisions. Before deciding whether to promulgate or veto the budget law, the President is consulting widely, including with civil society (invitation, FONGTIL report). The President's office has issued press releases on his meetings with civil society, the Prime Minister, religious leaders, the business community, academics, jurists, the Petroleum Fund Consultative Council and the Central Bank. He met with the Council of State on 15 January.

Since the budget was not promulgated by the start of 2019, Government is regulating spending according to the duodecimal system, through which it can spend 1/12 of the amount appropriated for 2018 during each month of 2019, as detailed by Government Decree 1/2019. On 9 January, the Council of Ministers approved duodecimal spending for January of $71.9 million: $16.7 in salaries, $29.0m in goods & services, and $26.2m in public transfers. Budget book for January 2019.

The Timor-Leste Media Development Center publishes daily English summaries of articles in the local media. Here are a few recent articles relating to the State Budget.

On 23 January, the President wrote a letter to Parliament and announced that he was vetoing the 2019 State Budget Law. He gave four reasons:

  1. Grave unsustainability issues of the State Budget 2019
  2. Orientation contrary to the Constitution and structuring laws
  3. High budget imbalance
  4. Absence of alternative policies.

Some journalists portrayed the different views of the President and Prime Minister as a "head-to-head showdown," but cooler heads prevailed.

Iha meza Prezidente nian

Revised and promulgated after veto

Parliament announced and held a one-day debate on the President's veto of the budget law on 31 January, with statements from the Prime Minister (also 12 MB video), Fretilin, PD and PLP. After approving an amendment to remove the $650 million to buy into Greater Sunrise, Parliament approved the revised $1.48 billion budget law by a vote of 40-25, with Fretilin still opposed. The outcome was reported by the Prime Minister's office and by Parliament. The revised law was sent to the President on 1 February.

On 7 February, a week after receiving the revised General State Budget Law for 2019, President Francisco Guterres Lu Olo promulgated it. In his press release, he explained that although Parliament had removed the $650 million to buy Sunrise participation, as this money was 'contemplated' in the amendments to the Petroleum Activity Law that he had promulgated. However, 23 MPs have petitioned the Court of Appeals to invalidate those amendments. The budget law was published in the Jornal da Republica as Law no. 2/2019 of 7 February.

On 11 February, the President explained why he had promulgated the budget, urging Parliament and Government to make future budgets more sustainable: “We all need to prepare the future today, starting now to look at whether what we are actually building is what we want for the future, for us and the generations to come, our children and grandchildren. Let us gain a deeper collective consciousness about our present reality and our future as a Nation.”

The Finance Ministry launched execution of the 2019 budget on 18 February, ending the duodecimal regime.

The Budget Books for the enacted budget were published in April.
