Published by Daniel Clark, Sep 6, 2019
This statistic shows Scotland's budget balance, excluding revenue generated by the North Sea, as a share of the United Kingdom (UK)'s gross domestic product (GDP) from 2008/09 to 2018/19. The deficit increased between 2008/09 and 2009/10 but has slowly been decreasing from 2009/10 onwards.
