Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

The hon. Gentleman will, of course, be aware of the question that I asked my right hon. Friend the Chief Secretary to the Treasury. The hon. Gentleman keeps quoting the figure of 5.3 million, but there are counterbalancing measures. He always does his research and he is careful with his figures; can he give the House the net number of households that will lose out? Most of us would agree that it is not 5.3 million, although we are concerned that there are losers.
