Chancellor to deliver parts of his medium-term fiscal plan today
The new chancellor will deliver parts of his medium-term fiscal plan later today, the Treasury has said.
The Treasury said Chancellor Jemery Hunt was fast-tracking the plans, which will be released in full on 31 October.
It said the decision followed conversations with PM Liz Truss over the weekend and a meeting with the governor of the Bank of England and the head of the Debt Management Office on Sunday night.
Hunt is set to make a statement at around 11 am before addressing the House of Commons at about 3.30 pm.
The statement comes amid calls that the prime minister needs to resign following the economic turmoil in the wake of the mini-budget.
