My Lords, I am merely reflecting the fact that times require certain changes as regards the Government, which is why we will look again at the situation in the Pre-Budget Report. The noble Lord will have to contain himself. We have got the necessity of looking at fundamentals of public expenditure and income because of the changes in the Office for National Statistics over the summer. The noble Lord will not expect me to respond to what he has put forward, which was only speculation in the press and based on evidence presented three months ago.
