Kwasi Kwarteng is expected to announce a decision on whether millions of Brits on Universal Credit see their benefits cut this Halloween.
The Chancellor previously told MPs that he would release more details surrounding his medium-term fiscal plan and whether this will include an increase in payouts in line with rising prices in April. It comes after Mr Kwarteng brought forward the original plan to October 31 to help quell market fears after weeks of economic turmoil stemming from the government's mini-budget.
Despite this, the chancellor is yet to confirm whether the government will scrap the previous Prime Minister's pledge to increase benefits in line with inflation, the Mirror reports. "No decisions have been made," Mr Kwarteng said.
