Abstract
Few would envy John Swinney his position right now. After a difficult Autumn of emergency budget reviews and public sector pay disputes, many of which still have no end in sight, the Deputy First Minister has made no secret of the fact that he feels that this is the most difficult period he has overseen for the public finances. In our report today, we set out the main issues and challenges the DFM will be grappling with when he sets out the 2023-24 budget on Thursday.
