Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 17 June 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Expenditure: Review of Commitments.


Public Expenditure: Review of Commitments

I am grateful to my noble friend Lord Newby. I agree completely with his analysis and that the numbers should be set out. As far as the reserve is concerned, I reinforce my hope that everyone in this House will agree that the reserve needs to be kept for genuine emergencies and new pressures that may result, particularly from military operations in Afghanistan.
