The House of Representatives has approved an amendment to the Central Bank of Nigeria Act, raising the ceiling of Ways and Means advances from the apex bank from 5 to 15 per cent.
The Senate had earlier on Saturday raised the percentage at an emergency plenary.
The Senate had approved an upward review of the Ways and Means Advances accessible to the Federal Government from the CBN. According to the lawmakers, it would enable the Federal Government to meet its immediate and future obligations with the approval of the ways and means by the National Assembly, and advances to the Federal Government by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The Senate also passed another legislation that seeks to extend the implementation of the 2022 supplementary budget by six months, from June to December 2023, which the House earlier approved on Thursday.
