Background
On 3 March 2026, the spring budget statement was given to the House of Commons by the chancellor of the exchequer, Rachel Reeves.[1]
The statement
In the statement, Reeves said it was the "right economic plan" for the UK as the budget watchdog slashed its forecast of growth for the year.[2]
The statement did not contain any major tax or policy changes, but did confirm that previously announced pension, benefits and savings changes are coming into force.[1]
