The Welsh Budget has faced criticism with concerns about the impact of funding cuts on public services. Welsh Labour and candidates for leader are urged to reject austerity, attributing the fall in funding to the Conservatives in Westminster. The Welsh government warns of the toughest financial situation since devolution, with many cuts in the draft budget. The UK Government is blamed for 'blackholes' in the Welsh Government Draft Budget. The Welsh Conservatives criticize Labour for cutting funding to Healthcare Inspectorate Wales and prioritizing other expenses.
