Proceeding contribution from Martin Horwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 March 2006. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation.
Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation
: I note that the hon. Gentleman was casting some aspersions about the commitment of the Liberal Democrats to rural areas. Does he agree with my hon. Friend the Member for Eastleigh (Chris Huhne) when he said:"““The restructuring of vehicle excise duty is welcome but will not go far enough . . . The cost for gas guzzlers will be less than one full tank of petrol and brings with it no protection for the small number in rural areas who have a genuine need for four-wheel drive vehicles””?" Does he accept that that is actually our position?
