...chief executive of the Centre for Economics and Business Research, said borrowing could come close to 200 billion this year - well over target. "Our view is that excess spending based on over-optimistic projections of tax receipts has been a root cause of the excess borrowing. All eyes will be on the Chancellor's Pre-Budget Report. 'With the UK's bond rating under scrutiny, it will be necessary to take action in the PBR that does not depend, as last year or in the Budget, on over-optimistic growth forecasts or on expectations of tax receipts from higher taxes on potential taxpayers, who in reality will turn outout to be internationally mobile.' Downing Street said that the borrowing figures were 'broadly in line with what we expected'."
