Dhaka: A ‘combined financial package’ for recession-hit sectors will be announced by the prime minister before she leaves for Saudi Arabia on Apr 22, said finance minister AMA Muhith on Wednesday.
New legislation will also be put in place to ensure the affected sectors get the financial support as speedily as possible, said Muhith.
“The special package is almost at the final stage. It will be announced before Sheikh Hasina’s Saudi tour,” he told reporters. Asked about the content of the package, the minister said, “That cannot be disclosed now.”
A range of benefits will be included in the package for sectors being affected by the global recession, he said, speaking after a meeting with the representatives of the Association of Development Agencies Bangladesh (ADAB) at the Secretariat.
