Government reduced ministers from 123 to 60 to cut cost of governance – Finance Minister

“Mr Speaker, we reduced the number of ministers from 123 at its peak to 60 and also reduced ministries from 30 to 23 because a leaner government is not only for politics but also a sound fiscal policy,” the Finance Minister stated.

He added that the number of ministries had also been reduced from 30 to 23 as part of efforts to improve the efficiency of government and reduce public expenditure.
