Finance Bill

Proceeding contribution from Andrew George (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance Bill.
I hate to drag the Minister back to VAT, but he moved on from it very swiftly after the shadow Chief Secretary's question about the alleged black hole in the finances. Given that there is no, or very little, likelihood of a sunset clause in the Bill or a further evaluation of VAT within this Parliament, will the Minister confirm that each of the zero ratings and exemptions from VAT, as well as the reduced levels of VAT that are available, will be retained and protected? That is very important in order for him to advance his point about the protection for lower-paid people.
