Finance (No. 2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Bill Esterson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No. 2) Bill.
I am sure that I did not mention the US economy, but we can check that in Hansard later. I want to pick up the point about capital investment. We need to be clear about the differences between the two sides on that issue. We Labour Members were clear that we would keep Building Schools for the Future and a number of other major projects going. We were looking at a long-term process for reducing the deficit. Those on the Government Benches proposed cutting all capital spending more or less straight away.
