Proceeding contribution from Lord Lea of Crondall (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

On the idea that it is a gross caricature to say, ““private sector good, public sector bad””, the Minister’s predecessor on the Conservative Front Bench said that the private sector is productive, the public sector is unproductive. The noble Lord can look at Hansard. I was simply making the point about all the ordering—I mentioned Costain—when it comes to cutting schools and cutting hospitals, and the interdependence of the public and the private sector.
