Proceeding contribution from Helen Goodman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 13 July 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HC) and Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

Is my hon. Friend aware that the distribution figures published in the Red Book do not include housing benefit? The latest information we have is that a million people are going to lose £500 a year in housing benefit. They are not the richest people; they are the poorest people.
