Proceeding contribution from Stewart Hosie (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance (No. 4) Bill.

Finance (No. 4) Bill

Before I begin my remarks on the Bill, may I make one small comment on the contribution of the hon. Member for Leeds West (Rachel Reeves), who was a little critical in her speech of the VAT change to ski tolls? Will the hon. Member for Pontypridd (Owen Smith) gently remind her that the systems in Glenshee, Glencoe, the Lecht, Aonach Mor and Cairngorm are important parts of the Scottish winter economy? I am sure she did not intend in any way shape or form to be critical of the many jobs they provide for young people, or of the tens of thousands of working class Scots who loyally use their local ski systems every winter.
