After three budgets and 42 months: has Government kept its economic promises ?

An evidence-based and fact-driven evaluation

Before the Minister of Finance stands up to deliver the 2018/19 Budget speech on June 14th, Government will have completed 70% of its five-year mandate and presented three budgets. This is sufficient time to examine its economic performance by comparing what it pledged to achieve after winning office in December 2014 and what it has actually accomplished after three and a half years. In addition to an evaluative appraisal, the aim is to recognise the very long and arduous road we still have to travel to attain a high income country status and to highlight issues that deserve urgent attention.
