Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 19 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on National Lottery Bill.
National Lottery Bill
I am often in a position to say to the Daily Mail, ““Now, come on””, but I rarely say that to the hon. Gentleman, who takes a sensible approach to such matters. If every penny piece that the lottery raised annually for good causes were to be transferred to the Government, it would pay for about a day’s worth of public expenditure; £1.5 billion in about £500 billion. It is important to put the issue into context and realise that we are talking about relatively marginal amounts.
