Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation

I am grateful for my hon. Friend's cue. Creative industries are vital to Cornwall, but so is creating high-quality food products. There is growing concern throughout Cornwall about the possible unintended consequences of the Budget and about the undoubtedly real threat to the Cornish pasty of the pasty tax. May I seek my hon. Friend's reassurance that the concerns of pasty makers in my constituency are being listened to and that a solution can be found?
