Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL].
I think that the noble Lord was also quoting remarks that I made in my opening speech this afternoon. I have tried to make it clear that I am not in any way questioning the very fine work of Treasury officials, but questioning the overlay that was put on the forecasts whether as a result of wishful thinking or for whatever other reason.
