We should make clear that our discussions will need to take into account both assets and liabilities. There is no established precedent for leaving the EU. We will approach the negotiations with the full intention of securing a deal that delivers the best possible outcome for the UK. It goes without saying that we want a smooth and orderly exit from the EU, and will look at the best way to deliver that.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 19/01/2017 16:14:20 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

Private sector receipts may, however, be estimated by subtracting the OBR’s estimates for receipts to the UK public sector from total UK receipts published by the EU Commission.

The below figure for 2014 can be estimated using the same methodology as in the White Paper.</p><br /><p>The OBR do not publish a forecast of private sector receipts.
