Proceeding contribution from Mike Weir (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 July 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
What the hon. Gentleman says about global warming is fine, but can he tell us the time scale? I represent a large rural constituency that, apart from one rail link on the coast, does not have any transport other than road. My constituents rely on rural transport, and rural businesses—whether coming in or out of the area—are suffering because of high fuel prices. If something is not done to help them now, they will not be here in 10 years time.
