Planet Holyrood | Two child benefit cap axed, cash for Holyrood and gambling tax explained

Around 20,000 Scots children are set to be lifted out of poverty after the Chancellor scrapped the “heinous” two child benefit cap. MPs were also told an extra £820 million will be allocated to Scotland under the Budget plans.

Low-carbon technologies in Grangemouth, where Scotland's last oil refinery closed earlier this year, will receive £14 million backing, pension contributions above an annual £2,000 threshold will no longer be exempt from national insurance from April 2029 and a hike in duties paid by online gambling firms will raise an extra £1 billion for the Treasury.
