Proceeding contribution from Yvette Cooper (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on The Economy.


The Economy

Lending is already in place for a series of different schemes. For example, 90,000 businesses have already had tax worth £1.5 billion deferred as a result of measures that have been in place since the pre-Budget report. Again, that measure was opposed by the Opposition, because they are not prepared to put the money in to give the economy the help that we need.
