HM Treasury written question – answered at on 23 February 2016.
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what the implications are for the Government's policy on balanced budgets of the decision of the Scottish Government not to enhance the powers of the Scottish Fiscal Commission; and if he will make a statement.
The Treasury is continuing to discuss all elements of the fiscal framework with the Scottish Government, including the Scottish Affairs Committee’s recommendation that economic forecasting for the Scottish government should be done by a body independent of government.
The UK government remains optimistic that a deal can be reached that is fair for taxpayers across the UK.
