The independent Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) published information on the reforms to agricultural property relief and business property relief in the Economic and Fiscal Outlook on 30 October 2024. This is available at https://obr.uk/economic-and-fiscal-outlooks/.

The OBR recently published more detail on the costings at https://obr.uk/download/october-2024-economic-and-fiscal-outlook-costing-of-changes-to-agricultural-and-business-property-relief/?tmstv=1739194105.
