In presenting the Draft Budget for 2013-14, the Welsh Government’s focus continues to be on delivering a Budget for Growth and Jobs.

The spending plans published on 2 October 2012 reflect the Government’s commitment to do everything it can in the current economic climate to foster economic growth and create and sustain jobs.  It provides for an additional £175m capital to support the delivery of key Welsh infrastructure.  This will create or support more then 3,000 jobs over the next two years.  

The Budget proposals also reflect the Government’s continuing commitment to safeguard and improve frontline services and to protect the vulnerable in these challenging times.

The Draft Budget for 2013-14 includes:

  • The Draft Budget Document
  • The Draft Budget Proposals, and
  • The Draft Budget Main Expenditure Group Allocations.

The leaflet, ‘Your Money: A Budget for Growth and Jobs,’ highlights the Budget’s key messages.  ‘Our Draft Budget 2013-2014’ is an additional leaflet targeted at children and young people and conveys the key information in a more accessible format.
