Where it sits in the budget
Government function: Tax revenue
- Own-source revenue$66.7B revenue, 2026-27
- Health$34.8B spending, 2026-27
A tax bill changes what the government collects, so it relates to revenue lines rather than spending.
This links the bill's subject to a budget area using published rules. It is not a costing: parliaments do not publish what a bill will cost as data, and FOCUp does not estimate it.
