Abstract
The author discusses the present budget of Pakistan, particularly its effects on development. Although it compares favourably to the former ones and offers a number of advantages mainly in the fields of agriculture and taxation, there are serious shortcomings, too. Therefore the Government would be well advised to employ better trained experts who are already available.
