Office of Budget Responsibility: Reviews
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, when the Office of Budget Responsibility is next due to have an external review.
Answered by James Murray
The Budget Responsibility and National Audit Act 2011 states that the Office for Budget Responsibility's (OBR's) Non-executive committee must appoint a person or body at least once in every 5-year period to review and report on the OBR.
The Chair of the Oversight Board for the OBR formally commissioned the third external review on 24 May 2024 which is published on the OBR’s website: https://obr.uk/docs/dlm_uploads/Third-OBR-external-review_commissioning-letter_24-May-2024.pdf.
