Proceeding contribution from Lord Khan of Tooting (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 am hoping that we will not need your vote tonight, Madam Deputy Speaker. Members have a choice: they can vote in favour of optimism and helping businesses and communities to prepare for an upturn or they can vote for fatalism. Accordingly, I ask the House to support the Second Reading of the Bill and oppose the Opposition amendment. Question put, That the amendment be made. The House proceeded to a Division.
