8:31Now PlayingCommons Leader Lucy Powell has told Sky News that a reference to Liz Truss' "disaster" mini-budget was removed following a complaint from the former prime minister.
Ms Truss said references to her economic "mistakes" were "untrue political attacks".
Ms Powell said the reference was removed "because it's a civil service document that is produced alongside the King's Speech".
The description of the budget responsibility bill, which will make it mandatory for major fiscal changes to be checked in advance by the Office for Budget Responsibility watchdog, said it was “intended to capture and prevent those announcements that could resemble the disastrous Liz Truss mini-budget”.
