Actually, they are condemning stats and statements from both sides of the argument...

Both sides in the EU referendum campaign have been accused of peddling "misleading" figures and "implausible assumptions" by a committee of MPs.
The Treasury Select Committee calls Vote Leave's claim that Brexit would save £350m a week "deeply problematic".
And it says Remain's claims families would be worse off by £4,300 a year if Britain quit the EU were "mistaken" and had "probably confused" voters.

It's amusing you are misquoting a committee that has asked both sides to stop making misleading statements...
