Proceeding contribution from Brian Binley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

May I point out the case of a small company in my constituency that sells wood-burning fires for companies? They cost £200,000 whereas the very big ones cost £500,000. A sizeable grant is available, but what I hear is, "People cannot afford the stuff even though they get a very good grant." That is what I mean about survival. People are not spending, even though the grant incentive is sizeable. Would he accept that?
