Section 5 of the European Communities (Amendment) Act 1993
My hon. Friend talks about confidence. Did he see the comments of Barney Frank, a leading US congressman, when he talked yesterday about this Government's obsession with austerity measures, which went right to the heart of the credibility of whether or not they could reduce the deficit? Coming from Washington as he did, he was clear that this Government's key measure for reducing the deficit in their period of office was counter-productive.
