OBR: Resignation of ChairContribution
We will work closely with the OBR to ensure that robust security arrangements are in place before the spring forecast and for all future forecasts. The Permanent Secretary to the Treasury will conduct a review of the Treasury’s security processes to inform future fiscal events. As I said when I was again at this Dispatch Box closing the Budget debate yesterday, the Government put the utmost weight on Budget security, including the prevention of leaks of information. A leak inquiry is now under way with the full support of the Chancellor and the whole Treasury team.
