P2- Money spent by the government

They have spent this much money so that they can be able to hire doctors, provide better training, provide medication for patients and also provide doctors with their wages. Healthcare is the most important factor as the country will have to take care and look out for their patients correctly. They will also need to build new hospitals as every year the birth rate in England increases massively. They will have to put money towards every step they take and everything they do. This is because they will have to pay for the material, the builders, equipment within the hospitals etc. Every day the technology in the world becomes better and better. That’s why they are also going to change the age when people can receive pensions as it’s predicted that people live longer as more lives are saved. All of this affects the budget of the government and could lead to overspend in some other areas.

Above shows that there has been an increase in the pension area. This could be for many different reasons such as the population and older people retiring from their work places. The government will have to make sure that they cut costs in every area possible so that they run the country efficiently and without spending money. They have made progress in

    Third, people are living longer and this means they collect pensions longer and company costs go up. Adding to the concerns is the ratio of retirees to active workers that is now about 1 to 1 in both Air Canada and Canada Post. This matters because the cash flow needed to pay benefits must come from worker contributions and investment returns. With the growing ratio of retirees to workers, the plan becomes more dependent on investment returns that are low today.”…

    One of the reasons why death rates have decreased in the last 100 years or so is largely because of medical improvements that have been a consequence of technological advancements. These advancements in technology have allowed new treatments to be found to cure diseases that were previously incurable and deadly beforehand. This has also paved the way to new illnesses being discovered and cures being found for them, which also ties to medical improvements and the decrease in death rates. The introduction of the NHS in 1945 by the Labour government gave people, who previously were unable to access treatment for illnesses, free access to medical care when they needed it. By it being funded by the government, rather than private businesses, this has increased the quality of care for all citizens because private investors and big businesses that may have owned it previously would have only focused on a profit being fetched in through treatment, rather than actually caring for their patients to a good standard. Through this huge development, death rates would decrease as the trend shows because free accessible healthcare and treatments would be available to all that required…

    First of all I tried to increase the general Personal Allowance from 4895 to 5500 and the Personal Allowance for people aged 65-74 from 7090 to 9000. I was expecting to have effect on families ( most significant was that of Couple Pensioners which gain 11.40 € ) and decrease the inflation ( by 0.30 points ) as it happened but I was not expecting the significant increase in percentages of government debt ( by 0.51% ) and the decrease of the exchange rate index ( by 0.18 points ). As a result these changes decrease in the following years unemployment by average 0.11 % per annum and had a significant rose in the growth of GDP by average 0.18 % per annum (those % are the difference between…

    Strategic management is an essential component of effective high performing organisations. In the private sector the fundamental goal of business strategy is to beat competitors, to achieve financial profit, Pearson (1999). However in the public sector the central strategic theme is focussed on providing year on year efficiency savings without any perceived loss of benefit to the Public, Government et al (1999). Kirkpatrick, Ackroyd & Walker (2005) realise that it has being the strategy of successive governments to achieve this by introducing private sector practices. However, Kirkpatrick, Ackroyd, and Walker (2005) recognise that this has not always yielded the expected improvements. Eliassen and Kooiman (1993)…

    The Conservatives are very fond of their brilliant health care plan of course, saying that: “The NHS is our country's most precious asset. Over the last two years, because of the dedication of staff across the country, the NHS has maintained or improved quality across the board – reducing waiting times to record lows, reducing hospital infections to their lowest levels ever, increasing access to dentistry, delivering more doctors and fewer administrators, and giving thousands of patients the cancer drugs they need” (Conservatives)…

    Greece is carrying out the toughest austerity program in Europe. The people have endured heavy taxes and abrupt cuts in pensions and wages, thus, managed to reduce the primary budget deficit from € 24.7 billion in 2009 to € 5.2 billion in just two years. Primary expenditure has fallen by 16.4% since 2009 with cumulative cuts in Nominal Public Sector wages over 30% and Greece managed to regain some of her competitiveness lost during 2000-09. Apart from fiscal consolidation and competitiveness recovery, under pressure from the European partners, the Greek Parliament has voted a number of reforms, including: labour Market reforms with 22% to 32% reductions in minimum wages; pension and social security reforms setting effective retirement age to minimum 65 years and minimum contributory period for a full benefit to 40 years; the legal framework for the liberalization of closed professions; a new Investment Law since February 2011; launching of landmark privatizations.…
