2021 Budget should focus on economic relief says one economist

The Government needs to use the data at its disposal to provide solutions to the issues facing the general public arising out of the COVID pandemic.

The call comes from Finance and economics expert Rishi Maharaj ahead of today’s National Budget presentation.

Mr Maharaj told Power 102 Digital that today’s budget presentation should aim to provide, at least in the short term, support to the sections of the public which have seen economic hardship as a result of the pandemic.

Mr Maharaj also suggested that the public should also be informed of tangible long term solutions to the country’s overall economic issues.
