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


The Economy

The Minister is always kind and gentle with me, and I am most appreciative. She has talked about the impact on small businesses of the Government’s loan schemes, but I remind her that on 13 March the Minister for Employment Relations and Postal Affairs said that 26 applications had been approved and that loans were "being made". I take that to mean that not one loan under that scheme has so far got through to small businesses. Will the Minister explain that?
