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
Let me ask the question again, because it is very important. The definition of cuts that the right hon. Gentleman used is: money that comes off previously published spending plans. Will he now concede that that means that, on his definition, there are £84 billion-worth of cuts in the Budget and the pre-Budget report, because they have come off previously published Labour spending plans? Yes or no?
