UK: Chancellor: Those measures are on top of plans that I will set out later in

this Budget, which provide an additional fiscal loosening of gbp18bn to support

the economy this year. That means I am announcing today, in total, a gbp30bn

fiscal stimulus to support British people, British jobs and British businesses

through this moment. Of course, if further action is needed as the situation

evolves - I hope the whole House knows, I will not hesitate to act. I believe

this represents one of the most comprehensive economic responses of any

government anywhere in the world, to date. The Governor of the Bank of England

and I are in close contact with our counterparts, around the world, in the G7

and the G20. And to support the global response, I'm also making new funding of

gbp150m available for the IMF's relief efforts
