I refer the noble Lady to the answer provided to Question HC25685 on 30 January 2025:

PQ25685: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the answer of 10 January 2025, to Question 20957 on Government departments: communication and public consultation, if she will list the (a) Department, (b) theme and (c) estimated saving of each of the campaigns (i) that were cancelled, (ii) continuing with reduced budgets and (iii) aiming to reduce their expenditure by 25%.

The comprehensive communications Spending Review identified 39 campaigns that were cancelled, 46 campaigns continuing with reduced budgets and 46 campaigns aiming to reduce their expenditure by 25%. The combined savings from these measures total £85 million in 2024-25 and up to £96 million in 2025-26.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s speech to the Confederation of British Industry Conference on 25 November 2024, whether it remains their policy that there will be no further tax rises or borrowing, beyond those in the Autumn Budget 2024.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

As the Chancellor has said, the commitment to our fiscal rules is non-negotiable, and we will meet them at all times.

The Chancellor has asked the OBR to produce an economic and fiscal forecast on the 26 March. This will provide a clear assessment of our performance against the fiscal rules. We will not give a running commentary on economic developments.
