Spending Round 2013
The Spending Round 2013 (often called the 'Spending Review 2013') sets out how the government will spend £740 billion pounds of tax-payers' money between April 2015 and April 2016.
This includes more detail on the choices the government makes to find savings of over £11 billion as we seek to close the gap between what we raise in taxes and what we spend.
It also sets out how we fund priority services like the NHS and schools, and increased investment in key infrastructure like roads, rail and energy.
