Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 20 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Comprehensive Spending Review.

Comprehensive Spending Review

I did not mention in my speech that we are funding the enterprise finance guarantee scheme to help small businesses get access to credit. In the Budget I also stopped the increase in the small companies tax rate that was going to take place under the previous Government. We want to help the small businesses and medium-sized enterprises that are the engine room of our private sector economy. I hope that some of the transport infrastructure, which is something that businesses often raise with us, set out today will help.
