Proceeding contribution from Peter Luff (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 6 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

Does my hon. Friend notice any inconsistency with the Chief Secretary's position in her opening remarks, when discussing a possible extension of the VAT reduction period? She said that certainty was needed, but is that not also crucial for pensions? People are making long-term decisions, and the extraordinary uncertainty that has been created by the Government's handling of the situation must be of grave concern.
