Opposition MPs say the House schedule means the government could deliver a budget Opposition MPs say the Commons schedule means the government could deliver a budget on April 1 or April 2, then use the two weeks off to sell it across the country without a House forum for opposition criticism and questions. Under that scenario, the Commons resumption on April 20 would be followed by a vote on the budget within several days and a vote later on legislation implementing the measures to bring in a total of $4.3-billion in income-splitting tax relief retroactively available for 2014 and forward into 2016, as well as a total of $3.9-billion from last Jan. 1 to next April in higher and expanded monthly child benefit payments the government first introduced in 2006.
