A team from the Opposition will stay up all night to scrutinise the budget – Gavoka

SODELPA Leader Viliame Gavoka says their team will be up the whole night scrutinising the budget, but what he sees is an election budget.

He says the budget is overly optimistic and a lot of the figures need to be scrutinised closely.

Gavoka claims the growth projected in the Revised Budget is unrealistic and the government is understating their expenditure.

He says the Opposition is unhappy with the time given to them to scrutinise the budget because it's an important part of running an economy.

He adds they will be ready later this morning.
