The “fiscal and financial recklessness and the free-for-all” undertaken by the former PNM administration has forced the UNC Government to increase expenditure by $3.1 billion over the next three months, Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo has said.

The original budget presented last September was $59.7 billion.
