Proceeding contribution from Mark Hoban (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

The hon. Gentleman makes an important point about whom we are targeting and the level of control. I remember that the changes that corporate governance control measures introduced got people to examine some of their businesses in more detail. I am conscious of his point about the very largest companies, but I am not sure whether we are considering only those companies. The regulatory impact assessment states:""Turnover—more than £22.8 million""Balance sheet total—more than £11.4 million""Employees total—more than 250"." What constitutes "large" for the Government is therefore relatively small.
