Written by: Adel Khelifi on June 17, 2026

The president of the Finance and Budget Committee under the ARP indicated, during the weekly meeting held on Monday, June 15, 2026, that the committee would send a correspondence to the concerned parties in order to obtain detailed data on the State’s holdings in public companies and enterprises since 2010.

He also announced that a hearing session with the Ministry of Finance will be scheduled in the coming period, in order to examine the progress of the execution of the state budget for the year 2026 and to review the main indicators and related challenges.

The president of the Commission also noted the receipt of several correspondences and proposals emanating from certain parties and concerned bodies, comprising a set of orientations and sectoral measures proposed as part of the preparation of the budget bill for the coming year.

The deputies stressed the importance of scheduling a hearing session with representatives from the Ministry of Finance regarding the note published by the ministry relating to the modalities of applying the article concerning wealth tax. This hearing aims to understand the orientations adopted in the interpretation of this article, the mechanisms for its implementation on the ground, and to clarify the various practical difficulties that may arise on this matter.

The deputies also called for sending a correspondence to the Ministry of Finance so that it provides the commission with a detailed inventory of the articles contained in the current finance law for which the necessary regulatory texts and implementing texts have been published, as well as articles whose regulatory framework has not yet been finalized. This approach will allow the commission to monitor the degree of application of the adopted legal provisions.

The deputies have, moreover, insisted on the importance of finalizing the process of amending the Organic Budget Law before commencing the examination of the finance bill for next year.

They also raised the question of a potential recourse to a revised Finance Law during the current year, particularly in light of changes affecting several economic and financial assumptions on which the initial Finance Law was based. They called, in this framework, to clarify the government’s position on this option and on the possible need to resort to it.
