Treasury Select Committee

The Treasury Select Committee is a group within the UK Parliament responsible for examining the work of the government’s Treasury Department, which manages public finances, including taxation and government spending. Its role is to scrutinize policies, hold officials accountable, and ensure financial decisions are transparent, effective, and serve the public interest. The committee gathers evidence, questions ministers and experts, and produces reports that can influence government actions and inform public debate on economic and financial matters.
