Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many countries, the United Kingdom has been hit severely by the COVID-19 outbreak. A strict lockdown was essential to contain the pandemic but halted activity in many key sectors.

On-going measures to prevent a second wave of infections will need to be carefully calibrated to manage the economic impact.

Download or read book OECD Economic Surveys United Kingdom 2024 written by OECD and published by OECD Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-11 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic growth is resuming, but challenges remain. Gradual fiscal consolidation is required over the short term to support the return of inflation to target and rebuild fiscal space, following substantial support during the pandemic and the energy crisis. Growing spending needs due to ageing and investment necessary to support the green transition call for tax reforms to strengthen revenues. Supply-side reforms are needed to sustain growth, including by providing businesses with certainty regarding taxation and land use planning to boost investment, and by strengthening work incentives to reduce economic inactivity. The United Kingdom is a front runner in the progress to reach net zero by 2050, but more effort is needed to accelerate emission reductions in residential housing, including a clear long-term strategy, pricing signals, regulatory timelines, and financial support to stimulate the market for decarbonised heating solutions. SPECIAL FEATURES: BOOSTING LABOUR SUPPLY; ENHANCING BUSINESS INVESTMENT TO LIFT PRODUCTIVITY; GREENING THE RESIDENTIAL HOUSING SECTOR
