While the OECD highlighted better-than-expected UK economic growth, which strengthened to 0.7% between January and March, it cautioned that "momentum is weakening" due to "deteriorating" business sentiment.It forecast the UK economy would expand by 1% in 2026, compared to the 1.2% it pencilled in a few months ago.

"The state of the public finances is a significant downside risk to the outlook if the fiscal rules are to be met," the OECD said.It suggested that Reeves should adopt a "balanced approach" of "targeted spending cuts" and tax increases to improve the UK's public finances."Strengthening the public finances remains a priority... including through the upcoming Spending Review," the OECD said.

It suggested closing tax loopholes and re-evaluating council tax bands based on updated property values.Under the current system, council tax in England is calculated based on the price the property would have sold for in April 1991. For Wales, it is evaluated on property prices in April 2003.

Meanwhile, worldwide growth is now expected to slow to a "modest" 2.9%, down from a previous forecast of 3.1%, the OECD said.

It blamed a "significant" rise in trade barriers and warned that "weakened economic prospects will be felt around the world, with almost no exception".In a speech in Greater Manchester, the chancellor said that sticking to book's rules has meant "growth created in too few places, felt by too few people and wide gaps between regions, and between our cities and towns".

Changing the rules will also mean more money for areas of the North and Midlands, including the so-called "Red Wall", where Labour MPs face an electoral challenge from Reform UK.Reeves is not the first chancellor to review the Treasury's investment rules; former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak also reviewed the book as part of the Conservatives' Levelling up agenda.

Sunak had also announced some of these same projects, including the development of a mass transit network in West Yorkshire, in his Network North plan, intended to compensate for the decision to scrap the HS2 line north of Birmingham.Labour reviewed these projects when they came to power in July, arguing they had not been fully funded.
