Proceeding contribution from Lord Clarke of Nottingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 January 2018. It occurred during Debate on bill on European Union (Withdrawal) Bill.
European Union (Withdrawal) Bill
I shall turn to that in a moment, but I agree with the hon. Gentleman entirely. I was not making a criticism of the think-tank, which has done its best, but we all know from experience that all economic forecasting should be taken with a slight grain of salt. It is utterly beyond the capacity of either the Treasury or the most expert outside groups to predict with absolute confidence what the precise consequences will be.
