Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate he has made of the change in average annual earnings in each year to 2020.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer has adopted the independent Office for Budget Responsibility’s economic and fiscal forecasts as the UK’s official forecasts since the Office’s creation in 2010. Information about the estimates used by the OBR in their forecasts can be found in the OBR’s ‘Economic and fiscal outlook’.
