Abstract: Overly cautious assumptions in the Treasury's recent report on the long-run consequences for the UK economy of leaving the European Union (EU) mean that it has probably underestimated the economic costs. That is one of the conclusions in a commentary on the Treasury's analysis published today by the Centre for Economic Performance (CEP) at the London School of Economics.
