The letter was read at plenary in both chambers.

“I write to crave your kind indulgence to grant me the slot of 12:00 noon on Tuesday, 12th November 2013 to enable me formally address a Joint Session of the National Assembly on the 2014 Budget,” Jonathan’s letter read in part.

According to the President’s letter, the 2014-2016 MTEF/FSP fixed crude oil benchmark for the yet-to-be-presented 2014 budget at $74 per barrel while N663.6 billion and N48 billion was earmarked for domestic and foreign debt service, totaling N712 billion.

A breakdown reads: Gross oil revenue (N6,814 trillion), Gross non-oil revenue (N3,288 trillion), non-federation account levies for targeted expenditure (N250.0billion), education tax (N156 billion) and National Information Technology Development Fund (N9.390 billion).
