Proceeding contribution from Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Business Rate Supplements Bill.


Business Rate Supplements Bill

My Lords, I realise the constraints that the Minister feels himself under, and no doubt if I were in his boots I would have said much the same. I have some sympathy for him, being confronted immediately by three former Treasury Ministers arguing this point. He has been good enough to say that this matter will be pursued, and I am sure that if a request is made, a delegation will be received and these good things can be discussed with those who are directly concerned. Given that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 16 withdrawn.
