Prime Minister David Cameron is returning to work on Tuesday following a spell of paternity leave.

He will chair the first cabinet meeting since the early summer, with ministers expected to focus on the economy.

Mr Cameron has been off work for three weeks, after his holiday in Cornwall was extended by the early birth of his fourth child, Florence.

His deputy Nick Clegg has been handling the day-to-day running of government in Mr Cameron’s absence.

Florence, whose middle names are Rose Endellion, was born on 24 August at the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro. She had been expected in September.

The Cameron family returned to Downing Street last week.

Tuesday’s cabinet meeting will focus on the state of the economy ahead of the comprehensive spending review in October, in which the government will outline the details of its cuts programme for Whitehall departments.
