In the 2026–27 fiscal year budget discussions, the opposition in Bangladesh’s Parliament submitted cut motions for 58 out of 59 ministries and divisions, excluding only the Parliament Secretariat. The allocation for the Secretariat included Tk 7 million subject to parliamentary vote, which passed without any opposition motion. The opposition filed a total of 1,343 notices seeking expenditure reductions across various ministries.

According to the budget schedule, the total allocation for the Parliament Secretariat was Tk 2.906 billion, of which Tk 2.899 billion was charged expenditure not subject to vote. Only Tk 7 million required parliamentary approval. Under constitutional and procedural rules, charged expenditures cannot be voted on, leaving only a small portion open to debate. No member proposed any cut motion against this portion.

The report also outlined that Members of Parliament receive monthly salaries and allowances totaling at least Tk 173,500, along with additional travel, insurance, and discretionary benefits, all managed through the Parliament Secretariat.
