Proceeding contribution from Baroness Teather (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

Does the hon. Gentleman agree that those arbitrary zones have created a number of unfair anomalies? Most notably, people travelling to the Caribbean will have to pay a higher tax than those travelling further—to Hawaii, say, or to other areas around the west coast of the US. People in this country feel angry about that.
