Proceeding contribution from Harriett Baldwin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Services (Social Enterprise and Social Value) Bill.
Public Services (Social Enterprise and Social Value) Bill
It is a pity that my hon. Friend was not present when I made some comments about his earlier interventions, but let me ask him now whether he takes his philosophical position so far that he does not believe that the state should spend any taxpayers' money. That seems to be the logical end point of his philosophical disquisition. Most of us would agree that we raise taxes coercively, and that we spend them; why should we not spend some of them on social enterprise?
