Finance (No.2) Bill
10:30 am

Colin Breed (Shadow Minister, Treasury; South East Cornwall, Liberal Democrat)
I, too, welcome you to the Chair, Mr. O’Hara. I think that my hon. Friend the Member for Falmouth and Camborne has written to you, apologising for not being able to be here this morning due to a prior speaking engagement that she could not get out of.
It is many years since I had the great pleasure of sitting on the Finance Bill Committee and, from my memories, I was not certain that I wanted to renew that experience immediately. However, I look forward to working with Committee members co-operatively on this Bill to try to tease out of the Government some of the important issues that will affect hon. Members, and our constituents, in the months and years to come.
