What happens if Budget 2021 doesn’t receive the votes it needs to be passed in Parliament? We explore this question with constitutional lawyer Lim Wei Jiet.

The Morning Run also gets into the parliamentary process of passing a Budget bill, what happens if the budget doesn’t get the votes it needs at the third reading, the options thereafter, and whether a failure to pass the Budget means that government salaries get stalled.
