Proceeding contribution from Iain Duncan Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 March 2011. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation.

Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation

I am intrigued by this. The right hon. Gentleman now seems to be at odds with his shadow Chancellor, who in his opening speech in the Budget debate last week, in response to a specific question about what spending cuts he wanted in the coming year, said:"““We said…that we would go ahead with the disability living allowance gateway reforms.””—[Official Report, 24 March 2011; Vol. 525, c. 1142.]" That involves £1.43 billion. Does the right hon. Gentleman support that now?
