Executive Yuan seeks constitutional review, sends budget to legislature

The Executive Yuan will send a 138.1 billion NTD budget unfreezing proposal to the Legislative Yuan, aiming for swift approval to ensure government operations. The Executive Yuan will also seek constitutional interpretation from the Constitutional Court regarding the 2025 central government budget and the Fiscal Allocation Act. The Executive Yuan's move follows significant budget cuts and freezes by the Legislative Yuan, hindering government functions. The Executive Yuan argues that the cuts violate the separation of powers and that the conditions for unfreezing funds are difficult to meet. The Executive Yuan aims to maintain normal operations and uphold constitutional principles. The government hopes to minimize public inconvenience and preserve the dignity of constitutional institutions through these actions.
