Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 September 2009. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Identifying Growth Sectors in the South East Economy.

Identifying Growth Sectors in the South East Economy

On the SEEDA budget, we read on page 127 of the report that there was a 5 per cent. cut followed by a £300 million national cut in regional development agency budgets, followed by a ““£17 cut””; I think that perhaps the Committee meant a ““£17 million cut””, but it did not proofread this morning. So there has been a series of cuts, which may have been very sensibly judged. How many more cuts does the Minister think that we need in a tough-choice environment?
