I shall be brief, but I want to put a question to the two Ministers on the Treasury Bench.

I am happy to put this question to my hon. Friend, but if he is unable to answer it, I intend to try to catch your eye, Mr. Deputy Speaker, to ask a single question of those on the Treasury Bench. Is my hon. Friend worried that the Budget does...

I do not think that I need respond to my hon. Friend, who has made the point very clearly. I agree with everything that he said. I believe that we are owed a response, because so many serious economists, as well as commentators on the economy of this country and...

I am amazed that there is not a single Labour Back Bencher in the Chamber for the Second Reading of a very important Finance Bill. This country is burdened with the greatest debt in its history. I am a long serving Member of this House, and I come from a...

My hon. Friend rather quickly passed over the problems of rural communities and farming. I believe that he was referring, to an extent, to the increase in hydrocarbon taxes. Is he aware that in many rural communities there is little or no public transport and so people, in many cases...

My hon. Friend could describe the situation even more clearly. The Government believe in continuing to fund the public sector—that is their policy—but are destroying the private manufacturing commercial sector that could fill in that black hole by funding public services.

The hon. Gentleman has just talked about the amount that individual first-time buyers might need to put down to obtain a mortgage from a bank or building society. However, I hope he will accept that part of the problem in this country was that we were giving people too much...

My right hon. Friend has just mentioned the imminent increase in national insurance, although it is not part of the Finance Bill. Surely, however, that must be part of our debate, because it will affect employment in manufacturing and commerce. At Prime Minister's questions today, the Prime Minister made great...

I am grateful to the Minister for seeking to respond to my direct questions to the Treasury Bench. Will she not accept that one of the reasons that unemployment has not increased, as many feared, is because the Government have sustained the public sector, and a lot of unemployment has...

Will the hon. Lady respond to the serious and growing problems of rural areas, such as the hill country to the east of Macclesfield, where there is no public transport? How are people expected to live and have a proper standard of life if they have to pay more for...

I clearly declare an interest: I am a long-time supporter of the Campaign for Real Ale, and I was the chairman of CAMRA (Real Ale) Investments, a little company that CAMRA formed. Why, despite all the evidence that pubs are closing and brewers are finding it increasingly difficult to survive,...

That this House urges the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport to make a statement that the Government does not support the application by Camelot, working with Post Office Ltd, to the National Lottery Commission for consent to offer cash payment of utility bills, energy meter pre-payments, mobile top-ups, housing rents and council taxes through National Lottery terminals; and considers that if the application were to be granted National Lottery would be competing unfairly against sub-post offices, small shop owners and small businesses.

That this House notes the continuing problem of some banks paying absurdly low rates of interest on ISAs to customers; further notes that some banks such as Barclays, Halifax and Santander have a rate as low as 0.1 per cent. meaning that savers with ??10,000 in an ISA receive the paltry sum of ??10 per annum interest compared to some mutual building societies offering 3 per cent. resulting in savers getting thirty times more interest or ??300 per annum for the same ??10,000; commends those newspapers which have helped to highlight this disparity; and calls for more assistance to be given to consumers enabling them to switch providers more easily.

That this House condemns the long distance transport of horses for slaughter at abattoirs in other EU countries; notes it is estimated that more than 100,000 horses are fattened at farms before being transported in appalling conditions with little food and water for days at a time to slaughterhouses in Italy, the capital of Europe's horsemeat trade; believes that such practice risks spreading diseases to animals in other EU countries and has implications for human health; calls on the Government to seek to strengthen the existing minimum values legislation which prevents the export of live horses from the UK for such purposes to ensure that it is not vulnerable to challenge; and urges UK members of the European Parliament to be vocal in their support for the EU to enforce a carcass-only trade.

That this House notes recent reports that 21 foetuses and baby bodies were discarded in the Guangfu River, Jining City, China; further notes that the one child policy in China limits most couples to one child; further notes with concern increasing evidence, including from official sources, that Chinese authorities continue to employ compulsory abortion and sterilisation as an official policy; and calls on the government of China to cease coercive measures, including forced abortion and sterilisation.

That this House welcomes the Dignity For All campaign to ensure that the highest possible standard of care is provided to the elderly in care homes across the UK; supports the claim by Jenny Loughran of the campaign that care staff are a vital resource who make a significant contribution to identifying shortcomings in the level of care being provided; and urges all hon. Members to pledge their support to the campaign and ensure that only the highest possible level of care is provided.
