Late every November the Chancellor of the Exchequer presents a major budget address to the United Kingdom Parliament that "reviews the nation's economic performance, announces the Government's plans for public spending for the coming year, and explains how the Government proposes to raise revenue to cover its spending, and what changes it plans to make to the tax system." The HM Treasury web site contains the speech and the Financial Statement and Budget Report (Budget Red Book), which summarizes the budget, contains economic forecasts, and analyzes public finances, among other topics. The site also offers a snapshot view of budget information, several government news releases containing budget information, and information on the 1995 and 1994 budgets.
