This is primarily due to A reduction in expenditure would potentially be the most efficient way to close the deficit, but increasing taxes could also play a significant role.

As the country’s fiscal position has worsened since the presentation of the supplementary budget, it is reasonable to conclude that he will be more aggressive in increasing taxes.
