Lord True (Con)
My Lords, I explained the reasons for the appointment of my right honourable friend, and I believe that it was a good appointment.
Lord Walney (CB)
Has not the Chancellor effectively announced a comprehensive spending review? Would it not be helpful and transparent to treat it as such across Parliament?
Lord True (Con)
There will be a Statement by my right honourable friend; I believe that 31 October is still the date suggested. Work is proceeding at pace and I assure your Lordships that they will receive full information on that in the same way as the other House.
