To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the Answer of 12 December 2023 to Questions 5901, 5897 and 5898, on what evidential basis his Department determined that an average worker in 2024-25 will pay more than £1,000 less in personal taxes than they otherwise would have done; and if he will publish those calculations.

The calculations underlying this statistic are based on public information, including a published estimate of average earnings. They are robust and could be replicate by an external analyst.

Further details are provided in my answer of 12 December to PQ UIN 5898.
