Why should the budget of a country be passed and enacted into law on time?
A budget should be passed and enacted into law on time for the following reasons:
*Only when it is passed can it be communicated to those who are to implement it. Delay can cause the desired benefits to be unrealized.
*Passing of a budget and its commuinication will act as an authorization to commit resources to the various uses.
*It should become a law in time as the budget may contain taxation aspects which are to be implemented from the day they are to be effective.
*Delay in passing and enacting can leave funds unutilized. It can also delay the execution of the ongoing programs.
*Timely action needs to be taken to meet the budget deficits, if any.
