The Finance Minister has warned the Government won't be spraying money around ahead of the 2024 Budget.

This coming Thursday, Nicola Willis will unveil what services will get a boost in funding, and which will be slimmed down or removed entirely.

Nicola Willis says inflation and interest rates are still running too high - and that impacts the Government books.

"We can't, in this Budget, spray the money gun around - and I don't think anyone is expecting us to."
