Proceeding contribution from Lord Deben (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 8 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
Has not the hon. Member for Somerton and Frome (Mr. Heath) given the clue to this? He says that the purpose may be the suppression of vice. He will, no doubt, remember that in the 19th century there was a Society for the Suppression of Vice and people added to its title, "For those with an income of less than £5,000 a year," because it was not interested in that cause otherwise. This Government have, therefore, carried on a noble 19th century tradition.
