Committee on Budgetary Oversight
Post-budget 2023 Examination: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Matt McGann:
In terms of research, we publish an annual debt report. Unfortunately, we have to admit we got the last one out a bit late and it only came out in January or February of this year for 2021. I will make a rod for my own back and say we are hoping to get the next one out ahead of Christmas. One of the things we do in the debt report is to try to take a wider view of the assessment of the sustainability of debt. We do some projections out the line, more arithmetical ones where we look at different interest rates and growth rates, and some of what we might call more stochastic projections, using the COSMO model.
