| dc.description.abstract | On 6 December, Parliament approved the 2025 Vote on Account (VOA) without a vote, allocating funds for government spending in the first four months of the year.
The Ministry of Transport, Highways, Ports, and Civil Aviation has received the highest ministerial allocation of LKR 220 billion in the 2025 VOA, driven by significant capital expenditure amounting to LKR 203 billion. While in 2024, the largest allocation was for the Ministry of Finance, Economic Stabilisation, and National Policies receiving LKR 1,077 annually.
The top 8 ministries in the 2025 VOA collectively accounted for 92% of the total ministerial allocation, with the Ministry of Public Administration, Provincial Councils, and Local Government receiving the second-highest allocation of LKR 196 billion. Other key ministries like the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development (LKR 186 billion) and the Ministry of Health and Mass Media (LKR 162 billion) also received relatively substantial funding. | en_US |
