As part of our long-term economic plan this Government announced that we had saved an unprecedented £14.3 billion last year alone compared to the spending in the year before the last General Election. There's more to do and in the Autumn Statement the Cabinet Office and HM Treasury jointly laid out plans to save a further £10 billion by 2017-18 through efficiency and reform.
