Forecasts for fuel duty revenues in future years are provided by the independent Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) in their ‘Economic and Fiscal Outlook’. For the latest fuel duty revenue forecast, please see Table 4.6 on page 104:</p><p><a href="http://budgetresponsibility.org.uk/efo/economic-fiscal-outlook-march-2017/" target="_blank">http://budgetresponsibility.org.uk/efo/economic-fiscal-outlook-march-2017/</a></p><p> </p><p>The OBR do not publish forecasts of tax receipts past the five-year ‘scorecard’ period (currently ending in 2021-22). However, in their 2014 ‘Fiscal Sustainability Report’ they did assess the sustainability of fuel duty revenues over a longer period. Please see Chapter 4 (page 123) of the report for more information:</p><p><a href="http://cdn.budgetresponsibility.org.uk/41298-OBR-accessible.pdf" target="_blank">http://cdn.budgetresponsibility.org.uk/41298-OBR-accessible.pdf</a></p> answering member constituency Harrogate and Knaresborough answering member printed Andrew Jones question first answered 12/07/2017 10:04:38 answering member 3996 label Biography information for Andrew Jones
