Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL].
My Lords, the scrutiny is one of the things that underpin what the noble Lord calls ““the big document””. If the OBR had any questions about the AME numbers, it would litter its document with commentary on it. However, it is quite clear from the terms of reference given to the office by the Treasury that it was required to and did scrutinise the AME numbers and was free to make any comments it felt like making on them.
