3.1 Revenue based Fiscal Consolidation
The government is committed sturdily towards implementing revenue based
fiscal consolidation measures, recognising the persistently low revenue
mobilisation, which leads to high budget deficits, as the root cause of fiscal
imbalances experienced during last several decades in Sri Lanka.
Revenue based fiscal consolidation will expand the fiscal space and allow the
government to accommodate mandatory recurrent expenditure while
financing public investment programmes, without prejudice to the
sustainability of the government's financial position.
➤ Moreover, enhanced revenue collection eases the need for increased foreign
commercial borrowings, thereby easing the pressure on the exchange rate to
depreciate.
