Proceeding contribution from Dan Rogerson (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

My hon. Friend has consistently pushed the case for defending pubs on the duty issue—last year and this. I hope that he is also aware of the many services that are often provided in pubs. In recent weeks there have been polling stations in pubs, and my constituency contains a post office in a pub at Stratton—there is also a proposal to bring a post office back to St. Issey in this way. These are the sorts of thing that the pub, as often the last institution in the village, can preserve.
