Proceeding contribution from George Osborne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 29 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Autumn Statement.


Autumn Statement

Of course people who work in the public sector pay taxes and make an enormous contribution to the British economy, but the hon. Lady should recognise that public sector pay restraint and pension reform at a time such as this is one of the ways in which we can reduce the impact of the very large deficit that her Government ran up on the public sector work force.
