Proceeding contribution from Lord Field of Birkenhead (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

On fair taxation, can my right hon. Friend tell me how many representations he has received from low-paid workers about the abolition of the 10p rate of tax? Constituents of mine who earn only one sixth of what we earn are paying £3 a week more, and I have tabled questions asking how many other people are similarly affected. Is my right hon. Friend satisfied with the balance the Government have struck, and when might I receive a reply to my questions?
