Proceeding contribution from David Mowat (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.
Scotland Bill
I understand the hon. Gentleman's point about a deflationary bias vis-à-vis the total tax take, but, in comparing the proposal before us with the status quo, what is relevant is the increase in income tax versus the increase in public spending. That is the basis on which the current Barnett allocation works, and on that basis Scotland is likely to do better in the short term.
