Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 April 2009. It occurred during Budget debate on Amendment of the law.


Amendment of the law

We support in a recession getting money to the front line from the waste that the Government have identified. They say that there is £15 billion of waste sloshing around Whitehall. If the right hon. Gentleman thinks that those schemes are so good, he should use the money from that waste and not add to the national debt.
