Perspective 25.2.24 - Treasury Minister and Tynwald colleagues consider the 24/25 Budget
Manage episode 402740807 series 3381585
The Budget has been met with mixed reviews since it was announced on Tuesday. Perspective unpicks some of the thinking behind it, with help from the Treasury Minister and some of his Tynwald colleagues. We are promised improved services and certainly the significant budgetary increases in health and education would indicate that, but we’re also paying a lot more tax this year and government continues to deplete our hard earned reserves. Will Alex Allinson’s high spending and high tax budget reap economic and service delivery rewards or is government spending now out of control?
