The Ministry of Finance and Development Planning (MFDP) in Liberia will start its budget hearings for the fiscal year 2027 on Thursday, October 1, 2026. These hearings are an important step in creating the national budget. During these hearings, different government departments will present their planned projects and explain why they need certain amounts of money. This is part of a requirement for the MFDP to talk with these departments about their needs before finalizing the budget. The first session will focus on three key areas: the Ministry of Mines and Energy, the Special Presidential Project Coordinating Committee, and the Public Procurement and Concessions Commission. These groups manage important resources and projects in Liberia. The hearings will last until Friday, October 9, 2026, and will involve many different sectors of the government discussing their budget needs and plans.
