Proceeding contribution from Lord Higgins (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 26 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
On the point about indexation, to say that it would increase complexity when the Explanatory Notes to the clause as it stands run to six pages is perhaps a little strange. May I pursue with my noble friend the broader point that I raised: is it not important to have a monetary policy that is compatible with the cuts being made? Also, in that context, why does he think that quantitative easing appears not to have had a significant effect on the money supply?
