Labour has accused the Conservatives of concealing severe issues in public services, resulting in a multi-billion pound gap in departmental budgets.
Environment Secretary Steve Reed highlighted catastrophic issues in the justice system, Rwanda asylum scheme, and flood defences, discovered by incoming ministers.
Ahead of a speech, Chancellor Rachel Reeves is expected to reveal a £20bn yearly deficit in the public budget.
The Conservatives have refuted these claims, with the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) regularly updating public finances.
Steve Reed accused Rishi Sunak of hiding an imminent prison capacity crisis and not taking timely action.
Labour plans to release prisoners early to prevent a collapse of the prison system.
Additionally, the cost of the Rwanda asylum scheme has nearly doubled to £700m, as stated by Home Secretary Yvette Cooper.
Labour promises transparency and openness, and intends to grow the economy without increasing taxes on working people, although they did not rule out other tax measures.
In response, the Conservatives maintain that public finances are transparent and accuse Labour of misinformation.
