Chancellor's help for North Sea oil and gas

Philip Hammond has announced that the UK government will examine options to help North Sea oil and gas producers deal with late-life assets.

Mr Hammond said the last spring Budget would "provide a strong stable platform for Brexit" by reducing the UK's deficit while preserving fiscal flexibility.
