Major Planning Options Law

On 26 April 2022, the Government hosted a Planning Workshop (Jornadas Planeamentu), opened by the Finance Minister, with presentations on a range of topics. Although the Council of Ministers decided the same day to ask Parliament to add more than a billion dollars to the 2022 budget, this was not mentioned in the presentations and barely hinted at by the speakers. They did, however, announce that the fiscal envelope for the 2023 state budget would $1,797.6 million.

According to the newly-enacted Law No. 2/2022 on the Framework for the General State Budget and Public Financial Management (see here for more details), Government should present a Major Planning Options Law to Parliament by 10 May for Parliament to approve by the end of May. The Ministry of Finance presented the draft to the Council of Ministers, which approved it on 9 May and submitted it to Parliament the next day. Full text of proposed MPO law, with three annexes (Portuguese original).

On 24 May, La'o Hamutuk distributed an open letter to all Members of Parliament with some commentary on the proposed Major Planning Options law, which we summarized in a press release and blog. Our press conference was covered by GMN and RTTL TV, Tatoli, Neon Metin and other media.

On 2 June, Parliament Committee C (Public Finances) issued a report (Portuguese original) critical of some parts of the proposed law, and the Parliamentary plenary began debating the law. After a few amendments, Parliament approved it and sent it to President Jose Ramos-Horta on 8 June, and he promulgated it as Law no. 8/2022 of 15 June.

On 30 June, the Ministry of Finances held its Jornada Orsamental (Budget Journey) workshop for 2023. The consolidated 86-slide presentation (mostly in Tetum) includes sections on Major Planning Options, Timorese Value Chain, Macroeconomic and fiscal information, the evolution of the Petroleum Fund, budget execution and the disaggregation process.

On 18 July, the Council of Ministers approved a 2023 budget ceiling of $3.155 billion for 2023, which includes $1.8 billion for the Central Administration, $1.0 billion for the Veterans' Fund, $0.24 billion for Social Security and $0.12 billion for Oecussi Special Administrative Region. However, the Veteran's fund is a reappropriation of the same money that was appropriated in the rectified 2022 budget, so the total proposed new spending in 2023 will be $2.155 billion.

The following week, the Ministry of Finance produced a detailed Circular (also Portuguese original, with appendices) on the ceilings and preparation of the 2023 State Budget. On September 1, the Ministry released a Pre-Budget Statement 2023 (Including the 2022 Mid-Year Report).

On 14 September, the Council of Ministers approved the budget proposal.

The proposed budget (documents below) was submitted to Parliament on 3 October, and forwarded to Committee C (Public Finances) for analysis and reporting. The following day, Parliament established this schedule:

3 Oct	Government submits proposed law for 2023 General State budget and related budget books to National Parliament.
4 Oct	Parliament receives the law, with a technical note prepared by its staff, and forwards it to all the standing committees to prepare sectorial opinions to Committee C for the Report and Opinion, according to the schedule in the rules.
5 Oct	Standing Committees begin their 15-day period to approve sectorial opinions and send them to Committee C for consolidation
10-18 Oct	Standing Committees hold public hearings
20 Oct	Deadline for Standing Committees to send sectorial opinions to Committee C
21-26 Oct	Committee C elaborates and reconciles all sectorial reports with the Report and Opinion of Committee C
27 Oct	Reading and approval of Committee C Report and Opinion
7-9 Nov	Plenary debate and vote on the GSB 2023 in generality

18 Nov	Committee C approves of the Parliamentary Decree approving the 2023 Budget
21 Nov	Final editing of the Decree
22 Nov	Transmission of the final edit of the Decree approving the Budget to the President of the Republic for promulgation

"Public" Parliamentary hearings have not been widely announced, but we received the agenda for 10 October and 13 October, and Committee C's schedule of hearings for 10-18 October.

On 17 October, La'o Hamutuk delivered a submission to all Deputies in the National Parliament, which we summarized in a press release.  We held a press conference on the 19th, which was reported by RTTL-TV, GMN TV, TVE, Timor Post, Independente, Tatoli, Hatutan, Lafaek News, Lusa and others. SMnewstimor posted a video of the entire 30-minute press conference on Facebook Live.

On 7 November, Parliament began debating the budget proposal in plenary, with a speech by the Prime Minister (Port.) and the reading of the report by the Public Finance Committee (C). Reports from the Economics Committee (D, Port.) and others were annexed to Committee C's report.  On 9 November, Parliament approved the budget in general, with 40 votes in favor, none against, and 24 abstentions. Debate on specifics, including 90 proposed amendments, continued until Parliament approved the entire $3.16 billion budget (with a few small amendments) on 17 November by a vote of 42-21, with 2 abstentions.  The total amount was the same as the Government had proposed, although amendments shifted about $8 million from one expenditure line to another.

The approved budget was sent to President Jose Ramos-Horta for promulgation or veto. News reports indicate that he has asked the Court of Appeals for advice on the Veterans' Fund (FCLN), although the Minister of Finance is optimistic that the President will sign the budget law. La'o Hamutuk wrote the President, asking him to veto the proposed budget law to facilitate deeper discussion.

On 13 December, the Court of Appeal declared that the Veterans' Fund (FCLN) was unconstitutional, as summarized by the President of the Republic. The decision had no immediate effect because the Fund was not yet set up. On 20 December, Parliament deleted this $1 billion line from the 2023 budget, although the President had already promulgated the revised budget law on 15 December. It was published as Law no. 15/2022 of 21 December (Port.)

Implementation and execution

Decree-Law 1/2023 (Port.) approved the rules for executing the 2023 budget.

Although the Transparency Portal did not work for months, in early March the Ministry of Finance released a presentation on budget execution for January and February.

Rectification

On 21 May, voters elected a new Parliament, and the new Government (led by the former opposition) intends to quickly enact a mid-year rectification of the 2023 State Budget, although they promised not to increase the total appropriation in the existing 2023 budget.

The proposed budget rectification was discussed in a "Mini-Budget Review Committee" and approved by the Council of Ministers on 9 August. The rectification will reduce the overall budget by $316 million, including $167m from Central Administration, $113m from Social Security and $36m from RAEOA. It also includes changes to the budgeting process and repeals the excise tax increases enacted with the 2023 budget. The proposed budget law was submitted to Parliament on 10 August, with an explanatory memorandum and budget books.

The Parliament acceded to Government's request to consider the budget rectification with an accelerated process, with hearings on 15-17 August, Committee reports finished by 21 August, plenary debate from 22-25 August and submission to the President for promulgation on 29 August.

Parliament approved the request for urgency on 14 August. La'o Hamutuk and the NGO Forum wrote submissions which were covered in the media. Parliamentary Committees, including Economy and Development (D) and Public Finances (C), issued reports. On 24 August, La'o Hamutuk organized a Round-Table discussion on Challenges and Opportunities facing the new government, as described in this blog (Tetum).

Prime Minister Xanana Gusmão presented (Tetum) the budget proposal to the Parliamentary plenary on 22 August. After three days of debate, Parliament adopted the proposed law with 40 votes in favor, none against, and 20 abstentions, as reported by the Government and Tatoli. After technical corrections, on 25 August Parliament sent the law to President José Ramos-Horta, who promulgated it as Law no. 17/2023 (Port.) on 29 August.

The $1.77 billion revised budget is slightly smaller than the original 2023 budget, and will withdraw $1.21 billion from the Petroleum Fund, $0.13bn less than originally authorized. (Estimated Sustainable Income for 2023 is $0.49bn.)
