The Budget

I must respond. I did not say that we know definitively that enterprise zones will not work. They might work, and we will scrutinise the evidence and offer an opinion of whether they have succeeded. If we have one in Pontypridd and it is successful, I will be the first to fete it. However, I urge him and his hon. Friends to look at the evidence of past success. It is not evident that such zones were successful, yet it was evident that the future jobs fund was succeeding. That is the mistake, because the fund cost a lot less money than enterprise zones might.
