Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ritchie of Downpatrick (Social Democratic & Labour Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 March 2012. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Northern Ireland Economy.


Northern Ireland Economy

Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the forthcoming Budget on 21 March is an opportunity for the Government and the Treasury to look at VAT? We are not coming from Northern Ireland with a begging bowl, but we would like to see some mitigation of VAT on tourism or general products. If that was possible, we would be extremely grateful.
