Proceeding contribution from Lord Eatwell (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.


Scotland Bill

I do not understand what that has to do with income tax and tax allowances. When you have a shock, you do not deal with it through the allowances or tax rates, because they take too long to have an effect; you deal with it through VAT or some other measure which has immediate effect in responding to a shock.
