Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

My Lords, I believe that I have addressed the point. As with any such office, it would be inconceivable if members of the OBR took confidential information away with them. Just as the noble Lord, Lord Stern, has referred to a report which he compiled for Ministers in 2004 but which he left behind in 2007, it would be extraordinary to suggest that those working on sensitive matters in the public sector would take away secret documents.
