Who decides the Budget?
Chancellor John Healey will deliver the Budget, but it's not solely his decision. The Treasury prepares it, but it must be approved by the Cabinet and then debated and voted on by Members of Parliament. This parliamentary process ensures scrutiny and allows for amendments before the proposals become law.
