Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the cost to the public purse was of drafting and publishing his Department's May 2016 report, HM Treasury analysis: the immediate economic impact of leaving the EU, Cm 9292.

The Treasury has always had officials working on UK and EU economic and policy issues and they, together with civil servants across the department, contributed to writing “HM Treasury analysis: the immediate economic impact of leaving the EU, Cm 9292”. The costs of producing and publishing this analysis was in line with the costs of other Treasury publications.
