House of Representatives, Wednesday, confirmed widespread speculations over its planned rejection of President Goodluck Jonathan's proposal for the amendment of the 2013 budget by throwing out the fiscal document on the ground that it was incurably bad.
.
The House rejected the President's budget amendment proposal after a report on it was presented at yesterday's plenary by the Chairman of the House Committee on Rules and Business, Mr. Sam Tsokwa.
.
He presented it on behalf of the Joint Committees on Rules and Business, Judiciary and Justice, which was given the responsibility to examine and determine the legality of the President's letter to the National Assembly last March.
.
Tsokwa had in the report informed the House that going by the content of the letter, the President was silent on what should be amended in the 2013 Appropriation Act, adding that he should have presented a Supplementary Appropriation Act.
