Spring Statement
The Spring Statement of the British Government is one of the two statements HM Treasury makes each year to Parliament upon publication of economic forecasts, the second being the budget presented in the autumn. Both usually involve speeches in the House of Commons by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Depending on its timing, the statement may also be known as the Summer Statement or the Autumn Statement. Under New Labour it was called the Pre-Budget Report and it was also referred to in 2022 as a mini-budget.
