Proceeding contribution from Liam Byrne (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on Pre-Budget Report.

Pre-Budget Report

The hon. Gentleman is making an excellent speech, but I think it would be useful at this point in the debate, since we have heard from the Government and official Opposition Front Benches on this subject, to ask him whether in his judgment the reduction in the deficit in the first year of the Government's plan should be faster, or whether the Government have broadly judged it right?
