UK Budget 1996

The pie chart shows how much money the U.K. government spent on various categories in 1996.

The U.K. government spent about one third of its money on social security which is the biggest category. Health and personal social services is the second biggest category. The U.K. government spent about £53 billion on it, followed by education at £38 billion. The money which was spend on the next four categories debt interest, other expenditure, defence and law and order is almost the same which is about £20 billion. The two smallest categories are housing, heritage and environment and transport with a total of £25 billion which is about 8 percent of what the U.K. government spent its money on.

The pie chart shows that the U.K. government wasn’t interested on spending its money on transport and housing, heritage and environment compared with the money it spent on social security and health which is about half of the money.
