Description

This Oxford University Press book offers a bold reassessment of HM Treasury's role in shaping UK public finances over the last thirty years, examining how Britain's approach to public spending has come under unprecedented strain amid fiscal constraints, rising public demand, and fragmented governance. Drawing on over 150 interviews with senior officials and policymakers, the work challenges long-held assumptions about Treasury control and questions its effectiveness in delivering financial governance across an increasingly complex and fragmented policy landscape. Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the structural tensions within British government's fiscal framework and the realities behind public spending decisions.
