Weinidog Cyllid (Jane Hutt): There are no official estimates of the overall fiscal deficit in Wales.  The Holtham Commission produced some partial estimates which showed that revenues from centrally collected taxes were higher than the Wales block grant.  However, identifiable public spending in Wales, including non-devolved programmes like social security, was higher than those revenues.  There are no fiscal projections for Wales, but the Welsh Government is planning to publish shortly estimates of the reductions in benefits and tax credits in Wales as a result of UK Government reforms.  This will provide an update to analysis published by the Institute for Fiscal Studies in February 2013 that showed a total reduction of £590 million.
