Proceeding contribution from Julia Goldsworthy (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 2 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance (No. 2) Bill 2005-06.


Finance (No. 2) Bill

I can give the hon. Gentleman a precise example of someone to whom I spoke this morning and who is using the HCI to buy a computer for his mother, who is a pensioner. The whole point of the HCI was to bring computers into private use and encourage their use in the home. Why, therefore, has the Paymaster General rejected modifying the scheme to ensure that the abuses that she mentioned do not take place?
