Data on Scotland's budget balance, excluding revenue generated by the North Sea, as a share of the United Kingdom (UK)'s gross domestic product (GDP) from 2008/09 to 2019/20 shows that the deficit increased between 2008/09 and 2009/10 but has slowly been decreasing from 2009/10 onwards. However, Scotland's deficit as a share of the UK's GDP is still higher than pre-recession levels.
