Proceeding contribution from Julia Goldsworthy (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 December 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Pre-Budget Report.


Pre-Budget Report

The Chancellor applauded the flexibility of working tax credits, but no additional support has been offered to two of my constituents who work in a factory and whose hours have been reduced to a three-day week since July. They are not entitled to working tax credits, redundancy pay or jobseeker's allowance. Was it not an omission not to include support for them in the pre-Budget report?
