Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Valerie Vaz (Labour). It was answered on Tuesday, 19 December 2023 on behalf of the Treasury.


Reducing Taxes

Question

Will the Chancellor confirm how much higher the tax burden is forecast to be at the end, compared with at the start, of this Parliament?

Answer

What I can confirm is that, as a result of the measures I took in the autumn statement, it will be lower at the end of the scorecard period than it would otherwise have been, and a lot lower than it would be under any Labour Government.
