The Treasury has confirmed that the fiscal plan, due to be delivered on 31 October 2022, will be delayed until 17 November 2022. It will also be upgraded to a full autumn statement.
The statement will come with a fiscal forecast from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) and will “contain the UK’s medium term fiscal plan to put public spending on a sustainable footing, get debt falling & restore stability” according to a Treasury tweet.
The Bank of England will now need to make decisions on interest rates before the contents of the statement are known.
