Charter for Budget Responsibility — Aiming for Budget Surplus — Cap on Welfare Spending — 14 Oct 2015 at 20:45

The majority of MPs voted for reducing public borrowing, aiming for a budget surplus in normal times, and in favour of capping welfare spending.

The motion supported by the majority of MPs taking part in this vote was:

The Charter for Budget Responsibility: autumn 2015 update[1] states:

  • The Treasury’s objectives for fiscal policy are to:
  • ensure sustainable public finances that support confidence in the economy, promote intergenerational fairness, and ensure the effectiveness of wider government policy
  • support and improve the effectiveness of monetary policy in stabilising economic fluctuations

Under the heading "Mandate for fiscal policy" the document continues:

In normal times, once a headline surplus has been achieved, the Treasury’s mandate for fiscal policy is:

  • a target for a surplus on public sector net borrowing in each subsequent year

For the period outside normal times from 2015-16 the Treasury’s mandate for fiscal policy is:

  • a target for a surplus on public sector net borrowing by the end of 2019-20

The previous mandate for fiscal policy was included in the Autumn 2014 Charter for Budget Responsibility Update[2] was:

  • a forward - looking aim to achieve cyclically - adjusted current balance by the end of the third year of the rolling, 5-year forecast period.

The autumn 2015 update which was the subject of this vote added this period until 2019-20, the Treasury’s mandate for fiscal policy is supplemented by:

  • a target for public sector net debt as a percentage of GDP to be falling in each year

The charter also contains a section on capping welfare spending,

  • To ensure that expenditure on welfare remains sustainable, the Treasury’s mandate for fiscal policy is further supplemented by:
  • the cap on welfare spending, at a level set out by the Treasury in the most recently published Budget report, over the rolling 5-year forecast period, to ensure that expenditure on welfare is contained within a predetermined ceiling.

The section on the welfare cap remained unchanged following the approval of the autumn 2015 update.

See also:: Vote on Charter for Budget Responsibility: Autumn Statement 2014 Update — 13 Jan 2015.

The March 2015 budget[3] states the 2015-16 Welfare Cap is £119.7bn and gives forecast spending in the scope of the cap in that year as £120.6bn
