Proceeding contribution from Ian Jnr Paisley (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 November 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Forecast.


Autumn Forecast

I thank the Chancellor for his statement. What assurances has he received from Ireland to ensure the multibillion pound loan now given to it will not be allowed to be used to have a fire sale of assets that the Irish state now owns in Ulster and, indeed, across the whole of the United Kingdom? Can the Chancellor also tell us what progress he has made with the Northern Ireland Executive on a reduction in corporation tax so we can compete fairly with a nation that has a corporation tax rate of 12.5%?
