Schools and hospitals are likely to benefit from Gordon Brown’s decision to spend his way out of a recession but most departments still face a tight squeeze in the next two years.
On Monday Alistair Darling will fast-track a range of small and medium-sized capital projects in an attempt to rescue the construction industry. This will lead to more schools being refurbished, one-stop health centres being built, social housing accelerated and roads repaired. Bigger projects take too much time to plan, commission and design and are less likely.
