question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the comments made by Robert Chote, Chairman of the Office for Budget Responsibility, in the New Statesman on 24 January, that most of the work that trade economists have done shows that the costs of leaving the single market and the customs union are greater than the benefits.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2018 answer text <p>The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) is an independent fiscal institution. Robert Chote’s comments in the New Statesman relate to an OBR judgement set out in their November 2017 Economic and Fiscal Outlook. The Government adopts the OBR’s independent forecasts as the official forecasts for the UK and as such, it would not be appropriate for the Government to comment on Robert Chote’s comments.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 06/03/2018 12:49:28 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
