Proceeding contribution from John Healey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Business Rate Supplements Bill.

Business Rate Supplements Bill

I will not give that undertaking, but I will give a fuller outline and an explanation a little later, and they will set out the circumstances and the principal case in which businesses would and should get a vote. The hon. Gentleman may wish to consult the leader of his local county council for his view on the issue; he is an innovative council leader interested in the fact that this power could allow Essex to raise more than £12 million each year with the 2p business rate supplement. That money could be used in his county for all sorts of economic development projects.
