Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.

Finance Bill

I will not give way to the hon. Gentleman again. I have given way to him three times in a row. We are not asking the Government to back down completely from their proposal; that is not realistic. We are asking them to go back to the drawing board, and to unpick the package and put it back together again in a way that mitigates the effect on the poorest members of our society. I think that that is what Labour Members who have concerns want.
