Proceeding contribution from Lord Hammond of Runnymede (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on Pre-Budget Report.
Pre-Budget Report
It sounds as though the Chief Secretary has not been listening over the last few months. We have consistently said that we need to start earlier: we need to start reducing the fiscal deficit in the coming year. As he will know, if he has his calculator with him, starting earlier would have a compounded effect throughout that four-year period, and would make a greater impact on the deficit.
