Proceeding contribution from Owen Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on The Economy.


The Economy

I entirely agree with the point that the hon. Gentleman is making, but would it not have been easier if the Government had chosen not to cut £900 million overall from the Welsh capital budget? Admittedly they gave back £200 million last week, but there is an overall reduction of £700 million in this Parliament.
