Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Peston (Labour) 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].
Since we are putting this on the statute book, is it the case that the OBR would not be offending the law, as it will eventually be, by paying great attention to what the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England was up to? I merely want some reassurance on that. There is no way in which it can do any forecasting unless it does that.
