Proceeding contribution from Neil Turner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 October 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Pre-Budget Report and Comprehensive Spending Review.

Pre-Budget Report and Comprehensive Spending Review

I congratulate my right hon. Friend on finding money to put into health and education rather than giving tax cuts to the extremely wealthy, but despite the excellent progress we have made, inequalities still exist in our country. Will my right hon. Friend use his position to ensure that the greatest proportion of the additional money that he gives to the Department of Health and the Department for Communities and Local Government goes to the areas with the most inequalities?
