Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 15 January 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HC) and Debate on bill on European Communities (Finance) Bill.


European Communities (Finance) Bill

My hon. Friend has enlightened the House with those figures. They stand in stark contrast with the assurance that the Chief Secretary gave us from the Dispatch Box a few moments ago that our contribution will be some £5 billion across the economic cycle. Either my hon. Friend is wrong, or the Chief Secretary inadvertently misled the House. If the second is the case, the Chief Secretary had better stand up now and put it right.
