Contingencies Fund Bill

Proceeding contribution from Desmond Swayne (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 24 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Contingencies Fund Bill.

The Bill is necessary because the economy has come to a halt; we have effectively halted it in order to put an end to this virus. There is a narrative that actually we could have toughed it out, and that we have sacrificed the economy for healthcare. That never really was a realistic alternative, was it?
