The changes we expect the chancellor to announce today
The chancellor will set out her plans for the UK economy during the Spring Statement on Wednesday 26 March.
Rachel Reeves has ruled out further tax rises, but faces difficult choices because of the weak performance of the UK economy and world events.
She is due to make her statement in Parliament at about 12:30.
Afterwards, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) – which monitors the government’s spending plans – will publish its forecast for the UK economy.
