Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 November 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on HM Revenue and Customs.


HM Revenue and Customs

My Lords, one good thing to come out of this disgraceful incident is that child benefit will continue to be paid. Were I a novelist in your Lordships’ House, I would think long and hard before putting such a story into one of my novels. Be that as it may, why it is necessary for the NAO to have such data, in such enormous detail, and why cannot anonymised data be used, such as other organs within government would use?
