Dodoma. The government on Thursday unveiled a Sh56.49 trillion budget for the 2025/26 fiscal year, which places strong emphasis on domestic production, small-scale income-generating activities, clean energy and healthcare financing.

The budget also proposes measures to discourage imports as part of broader efforts to drive Tanzania’s economic growth and transformation.
