Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

It is not just the First Minister who has said that there is a fiscal drag with the current plans— £7 billion is what we argue—but the Secretary of State, who said that the figure would be £700 million, so we are in pretty good company. If that was the loss to the Scottish budget, would the hon. Gentleman object to these tax proposals?
