英政府財政黑洞達2180億 擬裁逾萬公務員
14 Dec 2024

 

英國工黨政府早前聲稱公共財政「黑洞」達220億鎊(2180億港元),為了節流,政府各部門現計劃共削減一萬多個公務員職位,大臣們考慮推行自願離職計劃 。

 

 

各部門推自願離職計劃

一位知情官員表示,政府內部有一項共識,就是公務員人數不能持續增加。2024年公務員人數連續第8年增加,總人數激增至51.3萬多,較2016年增加了34%,各部門正尋求推行大量自願離職的計劃。政府發言人在聲明中表示,政府「致力於提高公務員隊伍的效率和效力,並採取大膽措施提高技能和利用新技術」。上一屆保守黨政府曾誓言裁減約6.6萬個職位。

 

工黨政府7月擊敗保守黨上台,為了改善財政狀況,已做出許多不受歡迎的決定。首相施紀賢削減了發放給老年人的冬季燃料津貼,財政大臣李韻晴則在10月公布的預算案,提高了企業和農民的稅收。她表示所有這些都是必要的,以幫助堵住前任政府在公共財政中留下的220億英鎊的「黑洞」。李韻晴早前誓言要解決政府「浪費開支」的問題,提出各部門節省高達5%的經費,並由各部門負責決定如何削減。

 

周三,大批農民駕駛拖拉機湧入倫敦市中心街道,反對政府推出的農業家庭遺產稅徵收政策。當天,從國會大廈到唐寧街一帶,數千名抗議者和上百輛拖拉機堵塞雙向道路,並警告若訴求得不到回應,將升級抗議行動。根據政府的財政預算案,從20264月起,價值超過100萬鎊的農業資產將被徵收20%的遺產稅,旨在增加財政收入以緩解公共服務壓力。儘管施紀賢堅稱,絕大多數農民不會受到稅收改革的影響,但仍引發多次大規模抗議。
