The expenses review is “established,” said Downing Street, after the Ministry of Interior was the last department locked in budget negotiations.
Foreign Minister Rachel Reeves is expected to announce financing increases for NHS, schools and defense along with a series of infrastructure projects on Wednesday, since it shares about £ 113 billion released by the longest loan rules.
But other areas could face cuts while seeking to balance the commitments of the manifesto with more recent promises, such as an increase in defense spending, while fulfilling their fiscal rules that promise to match daily expense with income.
On Monday morning, Interior Minister Yvette Cooper, was the last minister to reach an agreement with the Treasury, with reports that suggest that a higher police expense would mean a presentation in other areas of the budget of his department.
Speaking to journalists on Monday afternoon, Prime Minister's official spokesman said: “The review of expenses is resolved, we will focus on investing on the renewal of Great Britain so that all working people are better.
“The first government of the government was to stabilize the British economy and public finances, and now we move to a new chapter to fulfill promise and change.”
The Government has pledged to spend 2.5% of the gross domestic product in defense since April 2027, with the aim of increasing that to 3% in the next Parliament, a schedule that could extend to 2034.
The plans of Mrs. Reeves will also include a package of £ 86 billion for the research and development of science and technology.
Last week, the chancellor admitted that he had been forced to reject the requests for funds for projects he would have liked to support, in Whitehall expenses disputes.
The mayor of the London Office Sir Sadiq Khan is worried that Wednesday's announcement will not include new funds or projects for London.
The mayor had been looking to ensure extensions to Docklands Light Railway and Bakerloo Line in the subsoil, together with the power to introduce a tourist tax and a substantial increase in the funds for the Metropolitan Police.
A source close to the mayor said on Monday that the ministers “should not return to the harmful and anti-London approach to the last government,” and added that this would damage both public services and “jobs and growth throughout the country.”
They said: “Sadiq will always defend London and it has been clear that it would be unacceptable if there are no large infrastructure projects for London announced in the review of expenses and the MET does not receive the funds it needs.
“We need support for London as a global city that is pro-negocium, safe and well connected.”
