This event is now over but you can watch the webinar on our YouTube channel
Join our panel of expert speakers from the four Women’s Budget Groups discussing the first budget from this Labour Government and its likely impact on women across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
We will delve into announcements on changes to fiscal rules (and what they mean); amendments to tax rates; and decisions on spending. We will discuss how measures announced in the budget relate to each of the nations depending on which are devolved to national governments and which are reserved to Westminster, and how they may change the current situation for women’s economic equality in each nation and across the United Kingdom.
