Finance (No.2) Bill

Proceeding contribution from Jim McGovern (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance (No.2) Bill.
At a recent meeting with the Minister, I told him that before the Budget that announced the intention to promote tax breaks, there were at least six ministerial visits to Dundee, which included the then Secretary of State for Scotland, Ministers from the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, and the Chancellor. There was a lot of consultation before the then Chancellor eventually announced the decision on tax breaks. Will the Minister tell the House how many visits were made to Dundee before this Government's decision to withdraw them?
