Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what recent assessment his Department has made of the impact of Brexit on the UK economy.

It is for the Office for Budget Responsibility to provide economic and fiscal forecasts. Global external factors, including Covid and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, continue to put pressures on the UK economy. It is not possible to definitively disentangle the effect of these global factors from the longer-term impacts of EU exit on the UK economy and households.
