Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 8 April 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

The noble Lord, Lord Lea, raises a question that people often get confused about. They think that tackling inefficiency will lead to job cuts. However, there are a number of ways of saving money. For example, a pay freeze would not cost a single job but would save a large amount of money. A large number of savings can be achieved through efficiency gains with no loss of jobs. We are clear about that. I give way again to the noble Lord.
