Spending Review 2025 Event Presentation RFResolutionFoundation

The Government��s fiscal events have had a shaky start so far. The Autumn Budget unveiled ?41 billion of tax rises by 2029-30, while the Spring Statement was dominated by controversial welfare reform that will hit poorer families the hardest. The upcoming Spending Review provides a fresh opportunity to focus on growth and living standards, as it sets out the details of over ?40 billion additional annual day-to-day public service spending, and over ?100 billion worth of infrastructure funding. But with Britain facing the strong headwinds of global economic turbulence and strained public services, will it be third time lucky for the Chancellor? Has the Government boosted public services across the board, or has the NHS taken the lion��s share of the cash? Has public investment centred on repairing Britain��s fraying social infrastructure �C its schools, hospitals and housing stock - or building new economic and energy infrastructure? Have limited resources been effectively prioritised to support growth and improve living standards? And how might the Spending Review shape the upcoming Budget this Autumn?
