Proceeding contribution from William Bain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scotland Bill.

Scotland Bill

Let me, as a member of the Scottish Labour party, tell a member of the London Scottish National party that our commission will look at the evidence on all fiscal matters. However, strong evidence has already been presented that goes against the devolution of corporation tax. No convincing evidence has been presented by either the Scottish Government or the Scottish National party to show how simply basing a policy on corporation tax would produce additional jobs and growth.
