Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Hunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 January 2008. It occurred during Legislative debate on National Lottery.


National Lottery

May I make a little more progress before giving way to the hon. Lady? What the Secretary of State said about the headline in The Times today was inaccurate. He said that there is no new information, but of course there is very serious new information. The article states that"““Land agents contacted by The Times””" say that the sale of land is unlikely to make the amounts predicted because of"““the current flattening of the housing market.””" The ability to meet the commitment to help lottery good causes from land sales has changed materially because of the change in housing price conditions.
