Key legislative priorities on the agenda

A central component of the day’s proceedings is the budget orientation debate. This essential parliamentary exercise allows the government to outline its fiscal strategy and primary budgetary directions before the formal drafting of the following year’s state budget.

In addition to fiscal matters, the deputies will review a proposed amendment to the legislation governing the Mediator of the Republic. This review will focus on the organization, powers, and overall functioning of the institution.

The session will also involve the selection of parliamentary representatives to serve within various national institutions, ensuring legislative oversight across different sectors of governance.
