Premier Scott Moe announced Thursday that the government had written to the speaker, requesting the spring sitting of the Legislative Assembly takes place Tuesday, April 6 for the 2021-2022 provincial budget to be tabled.

“The new budget will be the main focus of the spring sitting,” Moe said.  “It will be a budget designed to see Saskatchewan through the rest of the pandemic and then into a strong economic recovery as we get more of our population vaccinated and life returns to normal.

He says the budget will make important investments in health, education, infrastructure, and our economic recovery - all while working toward a balanced budget by 2024.

The spring sitting is expected to last eight weeks.
