Financial sustainability and taxes video transcript – Stephen Boyle, Auditor General
Devolved taxes have boosted Scotland’s budget by over £4 billion in the past decade. 
But that’s a lot less than the extra tax raised in the same period. And that’s due to differences in employment and earnings growth. As well as how the rules work to set Scotland’s budget. 
We’re calling on the Scottish Government to be clearer about those differences and how they intend to manage them. 
And we also make recommendations to ministers to set out the specific economic policy choices they plan to make to grow Scotland’s tax base.
