Proceeding contribution from Doug Henderson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
I understand the predicament in areas such as the one the hon. Lady represents. Helping small businesses is fine and throwing money at them may keep them going for a little while, but if they do not change and find products that people want to buy or if they do not operate in an economy where people have the money to buy their products or services, that help will not solve their problems. That is why the general state of the economy and our ability to compete on skills in the future is what really matters for small employers in her constituency.
