LONDON, Nov 2 (Reuters) - The Bank of England will be sticking to its gilt sales plan, Deputy Governor Dave Ramsden said on Thursday.

Asked if sharp price falls in longer duration gilts might lead to changes in the central bank's quantitative tightening operations, Ramsden told a press conference: "We want those operations to be as predictable as possible."

"We've set out our schedule of auctions for the rest of this year ... and we'll be sticking absolutely to that." (Reporting by Andy Bruce and Sarah Young, Writing by Kylie MacLellan; editing by William James)
