The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the OECD Economic Outlook, Volume 2025 Issue 1, published on 3 June 2025, whether she has made an assessment of the potential implications for her policies of the OECD's growth forecast for the UK in 2025.

Answered by Lucy Rigby

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an independent international organisation.

As part of ongoing engagement with many different stakeholders relevant to the conduct of economic and fiscal policy, the Government engages regularly and constructively with the OECD, and values their independent advice and forecasting in the Economic Outlook.

The OECD's Interim Economic Outlook will publish updated forecasts on 23 September 2025.
