Proceeding contribution from Nia Griffith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on The Budget.


The Budget

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that it possible to have different rates of VAT and that various countries in Europe do? If he looks at his own electricity bill, he will see that it is charged at a different rate. It would have been perfectly legal to set a separate rate if the Government had wanted to do so.
