Finance Bill

I listened carefully to the hon. Member for Fareham (Mr. Hoban), and will try to deal with the points that he made. Ministers faced some distraction from those on the Opposition Front Bench, but we managed to focus on the issue at hand. We are very keen to see a progressive consensus being formed in this House, and I encourage pretty much all hon. Members—not all, but almost all—to consider joining us in that cause in due course.
