Sigh
We're losing what the purpose of the 'lock-up' is. It's to give a 2 hour window before the official release so that news agencies and other pressure groups can develop their response to coincide with the Government's statement.
If you don't get in for the two hour advance window you can always, just read the budget right after. I somehow highly doubt that a up to minute response from the CTF will be required by any news agency based on the staggering stasis of their comments over the past 15 years. Do you think they need 2 hours ahead of time to dust off their boilerplate statements on government taxes and revenue?
