Finance Bill

I was discussing the issue of gas prices with the pottery industry and the British Ceramics Confederation on Friday. I would like to correct the right hon. Gentleman on a point of fact, as the price of gas in Europe is lower now. The real issue is ensuring that structural impediments are removed in order to end the volatility in the UK. Although it may be against his better judgment, I urge him to support the EU in its efforts to do that.
