Part of Finance Bill – in a Public Bill Committee am 3:30 pm ar 10 Mai 2007.
I am aware of that. That is not in dispute, and we are not complaining about that. I am complaining that it will go up by 22 per cent. in one go for no apparent reason other than to raise revenue for the Chancellor. Of course, that is part of his job, but he is singling out that industry. That will have much wider ramifications, which have not been thought through, or clearly explained to the nation. I look forward to hearing how the Financial Secretary can justify them.
