Mr Hammond will instead announce consultations on issues such as cutting environmentally damaging plastic waste ahead of a full-scale Budget in late autumn.
The Chancellor will use his first Spring Statement on Tuesday to call for evidence on how to reduce damaging waste, and the new plastic innovation fund, which is also expected to be announced on Tuesday, say Sky News, is expected to be one of the few spending policies in his statement.
Shadow chancellor John McDonnell said: "Our public services are at breaking point and many of our local councils are near bankruptcy".
Tory Brexiteer John Redwood has also argued that the chancellor can afford to borrow to invest in schools, defence and the NHS, and "start to think about how we spend that Brexit bonus that comes as soon as we stop sending so much money to the European Union as contributions".
