Spending Review

A Spending Review is a process used by governments to assess and plan their financial expenditures over a set period, usually a few years. During this review, officials evaluate current spending, determine priorities, and set budget limits for various departments and programs. The goal is to ensure that taxpayer money is spent efficiently and effectively, aligning with political and economic goals. It often involves consultations with stakeholders and can lead to adjustments in funding, policy changes, or reallocation of resources to address new challenges or needs.
