Proceeding contribution from Danny Alexander (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 25 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.

Finance Bill

The hon. Gentleman makes an important point. That figure was not put in to limit the measure to particular constituencies, but to make it clear—this was a criticism made from the Opposition Front Bench last year—that there was no particular limit on the scope of the number of people who might be entitled to this rebate. It is important to make it clear that it is not just Scottish constituencies, but areas within constituencies in England and Wales, that would benefit from this scheme. I intend to explain in more detail the definitions that I propose to use.
