Proceeding contribution from Charlie Elphicke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No. 2) Bill.


Finance (No. 2) Bill

I would point out to the hon. Lady that the Office for Budget Responsibility says that there is a structural deficit of £109 billion—I believe that is the figure—which has nothing to do with the banking crisis or the recession and will not be eliminated by growth. Does she not accept that the previous Government have some or full responsibility for that structural deficit?
