tabling member constituency	Arbroath and Broughty Ferry
tabling member printed	Stephen Gethins
uin	10736
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/10/2024 answer text <p>The UK economy has experienced significant disruption in recent years due to a range of factors including Covid-19, supply chain disruption and the invasion of Ukraine by Russia. It remains challenging to separate out the effects of leaving the Customs Union and Single Market from wider global trends affecting the UK economy.</p><p> </p><p>It is for the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) to provide independent and authoritative analysis and forecasting for the UK public finances. The OBR has estimated that productivity will be 4% lower in the long run than it would have been had the UK not withdrawn from the EU, and that imports and exports will eventually both be 15 per cent lower than had we stayed in the EU. The OBR estimated in March 2024 that 40% of this impact has already materialised.</p> answering member constituency Hampstead and Highgate answering member printed Tulip Siddiq question first answered 29/10/2024 13:57:22 answering member 4518 label Biography information for Tulip Siddiq
