Spring Statement sessions
The Treasury Select Committee will hold a series of evidence sessions which will scrutinise the Spring Statement.
Meeting details
First, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) will answer questions on its economic and fiscal forecast, taking place at 10:00 on Tuesday 1 April. MPs will then gather the views of leading economists later that day at 14:05 on Tuesday 1 April.
The following day, the Treasury Committee will question the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rt Hon. Rachel Reeves MP, on her Spring Statement at 14:30 on Wednesday 2 April.
The Committee’s scrutiny is likely to examine any significant changes to the Government’s spending plans which have recently been announced, and potential implications for public services, government departments and debt.
