The last "Autumn Statement" was read under the last Tory government.
It was replaced in 1997 by the "PBR - the Pre Budget Report". This sounds a trifling unimportant name change, but the reason is that it is not given a fixed date, so may not be given in the Autumn, and has been given in October, November, or December, by Gordon Brown when he was Chancellor.
Alistair Darling gave his first PBR on 12 March 2008.|||February 29, 2019
