MORE GOVERNMENT CUTS

Government marketing campaigns could be cut as part of Number 10’s plans to slash spending on marketing by a quarter.

The Government this week unveiled a series of measures aimed at reducing the budget deficit. It hopes to save £12bn over four years.

Marketing spend will be cut by 25%, the Government says, which when combined with plans to half consultancy bills, could save the Treasury £650m a year.
