Proceeding contribution from Peter Luff (Conservative) 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

For the second time in the debate, the Paymaster General indicates that she does not understand the purpose of the scheme that she is abolishing. She shook her head in dismay at the example that the hon. Lady provided, when, according to the Department of Trade and Industry document, which was produced jointly with the Department for Education and Skills and other Departments, that is exactly the sort of purpose for which the scheme was established. It was to take computers into homes, not for business purposes. The Paymaster General clearly does not understand that point.
