Parliament’s budget session is set to begin on 7 June, according to a Parliament Secretariat press release issued on Thursday.
President Mohammed Shahabuddin summoned the second session of the 13th Parliament at 3pm on the day under Article 72(1) of the Constitution.
The session will also be the first budget session of the current parliament.
Sources at the Parliament Secretariat said Finance Minister Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury is scheduled to place the proposed national budget for the 2026-27 fiscal year on Thursday, 11 June.
As it will be a budget session, the sitting is expected to continue for a longer period.
The duration of the session will be finalised at a meeting of the Parliamentary Business Advisory Committee before the House goes into session.
The first session of the 13th Parliament ended on 30 April after 25 working days, during which 94 bills were passed.
Following the fall of the Awami League government on August 5 that year, the interim government’s Finance Adviser Salehuddin Ahmed placed the budget for the 2025-26 fiscal year.
