Proceeding contribution from Gerald Howarth (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 May 2005. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on The Economy and Welfare Reform.


The Economy and Welfare Reform

Is my hon. Friend aware that in my constituency of Aldershot, about three years ago, a German company invested a substantial amount of money in a new facility, and chose to do so in the United Kingdom? The managing director of that company told me about six months ago that if it had to make that decision again today, it would locate not in the United Kingdom but in Germany.
