As set out in the answer to Question 11414 published on 29 June 2026, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) sets out the process for the forecast and information it requests from my department. Decisions on the publication of data used in or supporting its forecasts are therefore a matter for the OBR.

For information on the business rates forecast up to 2028-29 for England only, I refer the Rt Hon. Member to the answer to question UIN HL323 on 4 June 2026.

For information on the business rates forecast for both 2029-30 and 2030-31 for England only, I refer the Rt Hon. Member to the answer to question UIN 11414 on 29 June 2026.
