It's hard to be certain given the specific wording and nuance, but I counted at least three items from Hunt's response that could count as intentionally misleading the House.

A lot of deference is given to MPs on such things though and they are always offered the opportunity to correct the record at a later date, so unclear if it'll get taken up by the Standards and Privileges Committees.

A £22bn overspend *this year*!?

Reeves' statement is scathing. The Tories have much to answer for.

Here a letter from the OBR detailing how their public spending estimates outlined in March were made without awareness of the Tory cover-up.

Hunt has almost certainly misled the House, not just today but through the last Parliamentary session too.

He depleted the Treasury reserve three times over, lied to the OBR to pervert their estimates, and misled both Parliament and the public repeatedly as justification for his ~£20bn NI cuts.
