Rachel Reeves vows to take an 'iron fist against waste' - as Chancellor launches the biggest audit of government spending in almost two decades By HARRIET LINE and MARTIN BECKFORD Published: 22:30, 9 December 2024 | Updated: 22:46, 9 December 2024 e-mail View comments Rachel Reeves has vowed to take an 'iron fist against waste' as she launches the biggest audit of government spending in almost two decades. Every pound of Whitehall spending will be examined 'line-by-line' in the Chancellor's spending review, which will not be completed until June. Ms Reeves will tell government departments to find savings in their budgets - as she warned she would 'not tolerate' taxpayers' cash being spent on poor value projects. The review - covering three years - will be focused on meeting Labour 's priorities. It will be the first 'zero-based' exercise since 2007 - starting from scratch with every expense to be justified. Departments will be told to stop spending if it does not contribute to a priority. Budgets will be scrutinised by 'challenge panels of external experts' - including former senior managers from banks including Lloyd's, Barclays and Co-operative Group. Ms Reeves said last night: 'By totally rewiring how the government spends money we will be able to deliver our Plan for Change and focus on what matters for working people. 'The previous government allowed millions of pounds of taxpayers' money to go to waste on poor value for money projects. Rachel Reeves speaking at a press conference after a meeting of Eurozone finance ministers in Brussels. The Chancellor will say she would 'not tolerate' taxpayers' money being spent on poor value projects 'We will not tolerate it; I said I would have an iron grip on the public finances and that means taking an iron fist against waste. 'By reforming our public services, we will ensure they are up to scratch for modern day demands, saving money and delivering better services for people across the country. 'That's why we will inspect every pound of government spend, so that it goes to the right places and we put an end to all waste.' The Chancellor's review will also set out a timetable for achieving the party's ambition of raising defence spending to 2.5 per cent of GDP. But she told the Mail at the weekend that any extra cash for the military would have to come out of the same 'spending envelope' as other priorities, such as schools, hospitals and the police. Ms Reeves' warning on waste came as a report into the growth of red tape revealed some of Britain's biggest watchdogs are growing faster than the sectors they oversee. Research by the Policy Exchange think-tank has found that headcount at seven major regulators grew by 84 per cent over the past decade. The Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates banks and other City businesses, has seen staff levels double (116.6 per cent increase) since 2013-14. Numbers at the Financial Reporting Council, in charge of accountants, have more than tripled (256 per cent) while the Competition and Markets Authority has seen a 69.8 per cent increase. Over the same period, however, the number of people working in financial services and related professional services only grew by 6.5 per cent. Headcount at broadcast regulator Ofcom has risen by 87.7 per cent despite job cuts across the TV industry. The biggest 17 watchdogs spend £5billion a year and employ 39,000 people, the report says, but the overall cost of the 'regulatory state' including the bureaucratic burden on businesses is put at some £70bn. Ms Reeves' warning on waste came as a report into the growth of red tape revealed some of Britain's biggest watchdogs are growing faster than the sectors they oversee (file photo) It said the UK's regulatory rulebook has experienced almost 'unchecked growth for decades', imposing increasing costs on businesses, damaging innovation and making the lives of public servants and professionals 'increasingly miserable'. The report blames a safety-first political culture, a bureaucracy in which is it is 'remarkably cheap' to introduce new rules and a 'complete lack of incentives' to cut red tape. It recommends that ministers establish a 'gateway' requiring that £2 in savings must be found for every £1 in new regulatory costs introduced - and that businesses should be allowed to appeal if official Impact Assessments underestimate the effects of a new rule. The report has been backed by former Cabinet Secretary Lord Sedwill, who wrote in a foreword: 'Government adds a safety margin to Parliament's legislation, regulators add a safety margin to Government's, compliance teams in the private sector and public service add a safety margin to the regulators.. Big institutions can bear this burden. Small ones find it stifling.'

Adelaide, Dec 6: Ravichandran Ashwin was preferred over Washington Sundar for the second Test here because the Indian team management reckoned the senior off-spinner would be more effective on the Adelaide Oval surface, assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said on Friday. Also, Ashwin’s record in pink-ball Tests helped him pip Ravindra Jadeja and Sundar in the playing XI. Australia dominated the opening day’s play and reached 86/1 at stumps after bowling out India for 180 in their first innings, making a strong comeback following the 295-run hammering they received at the hands of the visitors in the series opener at Perth. “Yeah, Washy hasn’t put a foot wrong since he’s come into the fold, halfway through that New Zealand series... I guess the thinking going into the last Test, we wanted to strengthen the batting,” ten Doeschate said at the post-day press conference. “And given what we saw of Nitish in the first Test, we kind of thought we’d go with what we perceived to be the guys bowling the best spin at the moment. And we feel Ash is more likely to get wickets in these conditions.” “When you get the confidence of Nitish batting at 7, it doesn’t really matter with Ash batting at 8. And that was the thinking. Not much to choose between them. And we just thought that Ash would be slightly more effective on this wicket,” he added. Australia will enter the second day trailing by only 94 runs and with nine wickets in hand, but ten Doeschate felt India can still turn things around and will draw inspiration form their remarkable comeback in the Perth Test. “I know that the scores look like there is a big gap between the two teams but we still feel we are in the game and with a few tweaks tomorrow (Saturday), we can get back in the game,” India’s assistant coach told the media. “This team doesn’t need the coaches to go into the dressing room and say we need to fight. The guys understand that implicitly and it’s obviously a very proud team who wants to come here and do well. “We feel slightly behind the game now but there certainly won’t be any letting up and certainly won’t be any surrendering. There certainly is a little bit of swing and a little bit of seam still there. So we’re pretty confident we can still turn it around.” He added, “At Perth, we got bowled out for 150 and still we got back into that game. This is a proud team and the players want to come here and do well. We may be slightly behind in the game now but there certainly won’t be any surrendering.” He was asked if playing less matches with pink ball had something to do with the performance of the team on Friday. “I just think it’s the nature of it. If you’re going to bring the pink ball into it, it’s obviously great for the crowds. It’s a little bit different for the players and we try to use the week as best we can to help them to adapt to the small differences. “I don’t think there are huge differences and I certainly don’t think there’s anything to read into about how the guys performed today. He added that things happen a bit faster with the pink ball. “Things happen in clumps, we lost wickets in clumps, which we wanted to avoid. I also thought that Mitchell’s (Starc) stock ball was very good and there are lessons to be learnt from that first innings. We will look at how we can play better in the second innings.” The assistant coach was full of praise for 21-year-old all-rounder Reddy, who stood out with his solid knock on the first day and dragged India to 180. “We are so chuffed with him. From the prep week in Perth, where he looked like he still needed to figure things out, the way he worked in Perth and the game plans he implemented in Perth, to get crucial runs there, I think to get us to 150 in that first game was amazing. “Just the way he’s gone about his work here. It’s obviously the first pink ball game he’s playing in. There’s still a little bit of work to do. He’s very raw. But for a young kid, a 21-year-old, to come out like that and play three innings of the quality he has, it’s super exciting. “There’s obviously a chat about Washy not playing. But he’s done everything a young player could do in a very short space of time. And we think he’s got a very high ceiling.” Ten Doeschate said India will look to go all out in the first session of the second day. “I think we’ll go as hard as we can in the morning but be slightly conscious of what the rest of the day looks like and what we need to do to get back into the game.”Alleged Would-Be Trump Assassin Ryan Routh Touts Direct Connection to Thomas Matthew CrooksWilmington, Del., Dec. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Participating in a tradition that has evolved since 1792, today, employees from Ashland Inc.
