BoE's MPC member Saunders: Question of whether to curtail our current asset purchase program early will be under consideration at our forthcoming meetings
Activity seems to have recovered a bit faster than May forecast
Risks lie on the side that output gap will close earlier than previously expected
It may become appropriate fairly soon to withdraw some stimulus
Options to withdraw stimulus include curtailing QE (ending it in the next month or two) and/or further policy action next year
If bank rate does rise in the next year or so, it is likely that any rise would be relatively limited
