What do you mean by budget? Discuss the procedure for the passage of the budget in parliament.(150 words/10 Marks)
Approach: Introduction: Start with the definition of the Budget. Main Body: Write the procedure for the passage of the budget Conclusion: Conclude accordingly. Answer: According to Article 112 of the Indian Constitution, the Union Budget of a year, also referred to as the annual financial statement, is a statement of the estimated receipts and expenditures of the government for that particular year. Union Budget also called Annual Financial Statement is presented by the Union Finance Minister on the 1st of February 2016. It must be noted that four different operations involved in the passage of a budget in the Indian Parliament include, preparation for the budget, enactment of the budget, execution of the budget and parliamentary control over finance. The procedure for the passage of the Budget: Before tabling the budget, the Finance Minister gives a speech in the Lok Sabha. This year, interim finance minister Piyush Goyal will give a speech in Parliament. Following the Finance Minister’s speech, the budget would be tabled in Parliament. What follows next is the discussion over the economy and broad measures on the budget without voting. Now comes the role of the committee and cut motions. If it is a full budget, Parliamentary Standing Committees will demand for grants and give resources on ministries’ estimates. Parliamentarians can move cut motions if they want to seek cuts in grants to ministries. This procedure is done away with in case of the passage of an interim budget. Now, comes the process of guillotining. If demand for grants is not voted on till the last day of the session, then it is ‘guillotined’. After this, an appropriation bill is introduced in Parliament. Now, the bill is voted upon after demands for grants which further enables the government of India to spend the ‘consolidated fund of India’. If the appropriation bill is given a go-ahead, no amendment to the bill could be proposed in either the lower house or the upper house. Now, the bill is sent for the President’s acceptance. If the bill gets President’s assent, then it becomes an appropriation act. One of the primary purposes of budgeting is to provide control over the revenues and expenditures of the government. The budgets are an important part of maintaining control of a government’s finances and are a means of achieving the financial reporting objective of accountability.
