April sees $200m deficit
*

A $200 million deficit was recorded in the Government's financial results for April, the first month of the current financial year.

 

The Financial Services & the Treasury Bureau said $22.4 billion in revenue was collected in the month, while the Government spent $22.6 billion.

 

The deficit for the period was mainly due to major types of revenue, including salaries and profits taxes, being mostly received towards the end of a financial year.
