Proceeding contribution from Adrian Bailey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 June 2010. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget debate.


Capital Gains Tax (Rates)

Let me take the right hon. Gentleman back to his defence of his party's volte-face on VAT. He explained that VAT was not a regressive tax because of the range of exemptions from it. Will he tell us what exemptions there are now under the coalition Government that were not there before that make it less regressive than it was before?
