Proceeding contribution from Lord Sassoon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 29 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Budget Forecast.


Autumn Budget Forecast

My Lords, I can only refer again to the numbers in the OBR’s document. I do not want to detain the House by repeating them all, but they show the cumulative effect of all these measures, including the infrastructure measures. I am grateful to the noble Lord for drawing attention to those measures because they are now more central. The economic infrastructure in particular has become central to the Government’s thinking and planning in a way that it has never been under previous Governments.
