Summary

Update PolicyEngine UK from 2.88.14 to 2.88.20 in the simulation API runtime.

What changed (2.88.14 -> 2.88.20)

Changed

  • Remove redundant uprating metadata and class-level aggregation metadata from variables that already define their computation explicitly.
  • Make the CPS expanded Marriage Allowance reform use the explicit would_claim_marriage_allowance input instead of formula-time randomness.

Fixed

    • Include council_tax_benefit in household_benefits, gov_spending, hbai_household_net_income, and pre_budget_change_household_benefits. Previously CTR was absent from these aggregates, so abolishing council tax via gov.contrib.abolish_council_tax refunded the gross billed amount to households (and removed gross revenue from the government balance) rather than the net out-of-pocket amount, overstating household savings by about £4 billion in aggregate.
