Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Comprehensive Spending Review.
Comprehensive Spending Review
I shall give way in due course. That was then, but what about now? Did we lose control of spending and borrowing in response to the credit crunch? The short answer is certainly not. We boosted public spending to offset the collapse in private spending, as firms and households cut back on business investment and consumer spending.
