Intense week in Parliament: budgets of 4 ministries to be discussed

Turkey’s parliament this week will debate the 2027 budgets of four ministries as part of its broader budget deliberations, with the General Assembly also continuing work on a bill governing the duties and powers of the Turkish Red Crescent. Once that bill is enacted, lawmakers are expected to take up a separate regulation targeting foreign digital accommodation platforms. The budget debates matter because they set spending priorities for the coming fiscal year, while the platform rules could reshape how overseas booking sites operate in Turkey. What to watch next is whether the Red Crescent bill clears the General Assembly and when the digital accommodation measure reaches the agenda.
