Proceeding contribution from Tom Levitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill.
Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill
The hon. Gentleman may not know that I represent a Derbyshire seat. For 18 years, under a Conservative Government, we had the lowest grants in the country because the system was biased against us. I put it to the hon. Gentleman that the Government have merely corrected the balance and introduced a fair system. It has indeed caused funds to move from the south to the north, but that is because the grants were not going there under the Conservatives.
