The government regularly assesses the level of investment needed in public services.

Spending Review 2021 set the government’s spending plans for the rest of this Parliament (up to 2024-25). Since then, targeted additional funding has been provided for key public services. This includes access to funding of £14.1 billion over the next two years to support the NHS and adult social care; and an additional £5.2 billion over the next two years for schools.
