Description:
Provides clean, tidy access to data published by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), the UK's independent fiscal watchdog. Covers the Public Finances Databank (outturn for PSNB, PSND, receipts, and expenditure since 1946), the Historical Official Forecasts Database (every OBR forecast since 2010), the Economic and Fiscal Outlook detailed forecast tables (five-year projections from the latest Budget), the Welfare Trends Report (incapacity benefit spending and caseloads), and the Fiscal Risks and Sustainability Report (50-year state pension projections). Data is downloaded from the OBR on first use and cached locally for subsequent calls. Data is sourced from the OBR website <https://obr.uk>.
