بَدَأَتْ يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ، ٩ نُوفَمْبَرَ، جَلَسَاتٌ مُشْتَرَكَةٌ بَيْنَ مَجْلِسِ نُوَّابِ الشَّعْبِ وَالْمَجْلِسِ الْوَطَنِيِّ لِلْجِهَاتِ وَالْأَقَالِيمِ لِمُنَاقَشَةِ مَشْرُوعِ مِيزَانِيَّةِ الدَّوْلَةِ لِعَامِ ٢٠٢٧. وَحَضَرَتْ رَئِيسَةُ الْحُكُومَةِ سَارَّةُ الزَّعْفَرَانِيِّ الزَّنْزَرِيِّ، وَعَرَضَتْ خُطَّةَ الْحُكُومَةِ لِلْعَامِ الْمُقْبِلِ.
قُدِّرَ الْمَبْلَغُ الْإِجْمَالِيُّ لِلْمِيزَانِيَّةِ بِـ٨٢٫٤٠٢ مِلْيَارَ دِينَارٍ تُونِسِيٍّ، أَيْ أَكْثَرَ بِنِسْبَةِ ٣٫٦٪ مِنَ التَّقْدِيرَاتِ لِعَامِ ٢٠٢٦. وَقَالَتِ الْحُكُومَةُ إِنَّ الْخُطَّةَ تَهْدِفُ إِلَى زِيَادَةِ الِاسْتِثْمَارِ وَفُرَصِ الْعَمَلِ، وَتَقْلِيلِ الْفَرْقِ فِي التَّنْمِيَةِ بَيْنَ الْمَنَاطِقِ.
وَتَشْمَلُ الْأَوْلَوِيَّاتُ دَعْمَ الصِّحَّةِ وَالتَّعْلِيمِ وَالنَّقْلِ وَالسَّكَنِ، وَتَحْسِينَ أَمْنِ الْغِذَاءِ وَالْمَاءِ وَالطَّاقَةِ. وَقَدَّرَ الْمَشْرُوعُ نَفَقَاتِ الدَّوْلَةِ بِـ٦٨٫٨٩٥ مِلْيَارَ دِينَارٍ، وَإِيرَادَاتِهَا بِـ٥٤٫٢٨٠ مِلْيَارًا؛ لِذٰلِكَ يُقَدَّرُ الْعَجْزُ بِـ١٤٫٦١٥ مِلْيَارًا. وَدَعَا رَئِيسُ مَجْلِسِ نُوَّابِ الشَّعْبِ إِلَى خَفْضِ الْعَجْزِ وَالْحَدِّ مِنَ الِاقْتِرَاضِ، مَعَ الْحِفَاظِ عَلَى دَوْرِ الدَّوْلَةِ الِاجْتِمَاعِيِّ. وَتَسْتَمِرُّ الْجَلَسَاتُ لِدِرَاسَةِ الْمَشْرُوعِ.

Tunisia’s Parliament Begins Reviewing the 2027 Budget
On Monday, November 9, joint sessions began between the Assembly of the Representatives of the People and the National Council of Regions and Districts to discuss the proposed state budget for 2027. Prime Minister Sarra Zaafrani Zenzri attended and presented the government’s plan for the coming year.
The budget’s total amount was estimated at 82.402 billion Tunisian dinars, 3.6% higher than the estimate for 2026. The government said the plan aims to increase investment and job opportunities and reduce differences in development between regions.
The priorities include supporting health, education, transport, and housing, and improving food, water, and energy security. The proposal estimated state spending at 68.895 billion dinars and revenue at 54.280 billion, leaving an estimated deficit of 14.615 billion. The speaker of the Assembly of the Representatives of the People called for reducing the deficit and limiting borrowing while preserving the state’s social role. Sessions will continue to examine the proposal.
