Proceeding contribution from Ian Lavery (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Finance (No. 3) Bill.


Finance (No. 3) Bill

““Only for the better.”” Of course. In future years, the Government should increase the bank levy to ensure that the banks continue to pay their fair share of tax, so that taxpayers are not left picking up the bill for a crisis caused by the irresponsible actions of those institutions. The OBR's November 2010 forecast showed that the bonus tax brought in revenues of £3.5 billion in 2010-11.
