Proceeding contribution from Philip Hollobone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 September 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Late Payments (SMEs).


Late Payments (SMEs)

I congratulate the hon. Lady on her excellent speech and on all the energy and industry that she has shown in the House since being returned at the by-election. A small company in my constituency of Kettering is owed £34,000 by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs under the construction industry scheme, and yet at the same time it is being pursued by HMRC for a £10,000 corporation tax bill. May I use the hon. Lady's debate to pass on a message to the Government that they need to get the Inland Revenue in order, to be on the side of small businesses and not against them?
