The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the Office for Budget Responsibility will publish a fiscal mandate assessment alongside the Spring Statement.
Answered by James Murray
As the Chancellor announced at Budget 2025, the OBR will assess performance against the fiscal rules once a year at the Budget, in line with the government’s commitment to a single major fiscal event per year.
