UK Budget date kept at 11 March
The government will not be changing the date of the Budget, Chancellor Rishi Sunak has announced. There had been speculation that the Budget could be delayed after Mr Sunak replaced Sajid Javid following his resignation last week. "Mr Sunak tweeted that he was"cracking on" with preparations" and would "Deliver the promises" made to voters ahead of December's general election. At the weekend, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said Budget plans were "Well advanced", but Mr Sunak "May want time". Mr Sunak was Chief Secretary to the Treasury before taking over from Mr Javid.
