Proceeding contribution from Lord Eatwell (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL].


Budget Responsibility and National Audit Bill [HL]

Absolutely. I agree with value for money, but the issue that we are discussing is the independence of the OBR in the pursuit of its activities. It may have pursued a constrained raft of activities very efficiently, providing good value for money, but the issue is the constraint. The Treasury Committee would be sensitive to exactly that kind of issue. That is why I have incorporated the Treasury Committee into my amendment.
