Proceeding contribution from Lord Jackson of Peterborough (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 11 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legislation (Territorial Extent) Bill.
Legislation (Territorial Extent) Bill
Does my right hon. and learned Friend agree that we have institutionalised a sense of resentment and unfairness by not giving greater fiscal autonomy and tax-raising powers to the devolved Governments? That sense of unfairness does not exist in other devolved systems, such as the federal system in the United States, in which each state can raise its own taxes, and there is no feeling of resentment towards the central Government.
