Council Tax (New Valuation Lists for England) Bill

For a moment, I feared that the carefully thought out suggestion offered by my right hon. Friend the Member for Bromley and Chislehurst (Mr. Forth)—that I speak for another two hours—would become a request from the Chair. One of the difficulties caused by my national background is that, like my previous countrymen, I tend to make speeches that are short and sweet. I am relieved and pleased to see so many of my hon. Friends here to support my amendment—at least I hope that that is why they are here. I commend the amendment to the House.
