Proceeding contribution from David Gauke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 2 February 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Government Capital Expenditure.
Government Capital Expenditure
The Minister has boasted about the Government's record on public finances since 1997. Is he aware of the quotation from the Institute of Fiscal Studies last week? It states:"““Labour entered the crisis with one of the largest structural budget deficits in the industrial world and a bigger debt than most OECD countries, having done less to reduce debt and—in particular—borrowing than most since 1997.””"
