The budget outturn shows that Botswana has realised lower than expected Budget deficit for the year 2011/12 at P181 Billion instead of the estimated P3.76 Billion. This is consistent with the Government's intention to have balanced budget in the year 2012/13. Consequently, the revised estimates of the 2012/13 Budget balance show a surplus of P835 Million.   http://www.finance.gov.bw/templates/mfdp/file/File/2013%20Budget%20Speech_1Feb2013_Final.pdf
