The Minister of Health and Social Services, Esperance Luvindao, addressed Parliament to motivate a budget of more than N$13 billion for the ministry for the 2026/2027 financial year.

The budget comprises an operational budget of over N$12 billion and a development budget of over N$489 million.

The National Assembly has passed the Auditor General's office vote with an allocation of N$133 million for the 2026/2027 financial year.

Some MPs however argued that the office requires more finances to capacitate and operate efficiently.
