Budget 2006, published last December, gives current spending figures out to 2008, consistent with Government fiscal strategy. The Government's overriding budgetary framework is the Stability and Growth Pact and, within this, to maintain the firm and disciplined approach to budgetary policy that has served us so well. These spending increases are in line with this strategy. My Department's most up-to-date forecasts will be published in the Pre-Budget Outlook this month and expenditure increases out to 2009 will be published on Budget Day.
