Proceeding contribution from Stephen Hesford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance Bill.

Finance Bill

I am obliged to the hon. Gentleman for giving way—I think. Does he not accept that, by and large, as I understand it, the financial press did not really bat an eyelid about this measure? The only point that the financial press seemed to make was about the timings and implementation. That is why the Government have tabled the various amendments to schedule 18. Given that there was not really the clamour that he appears to be trying to make out that there was and given that the Government have tabled amendments Nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9 to schedule 18, does he not agree that those amendments are the best way forward and will he support them?
