The Chancellor, George Osborne, presented the 2011 Budget on 23 March. The Government’s economic policy objective is to achieve strong, sustainable and balanced growth that is more evenly shared across the country and between industries. This Budget builds on action announced in the Spending Review 2010 and the June Budget 2010 last June to rebalance the economy from unsustainable public spending towards exports and investment. This should support the UK’s
long-term economic potential and help to create new jobs.
