Clause 45
Finance Bill
6:30 pm
Colin Breed (Shadow Minister, Treasury; South East Cornwall, Liberal Democrat)
I have no intention of opposing the clause, as its fairness is obvious. I just wanted to point out the unintended consequences that might be visited on hon. Members. We are seeing an explosion of vans on housing estates, which is causing havoc, because they cannot go into garages or, very often, on to driveways, so they end up on the road. A significant number of people now use their company and, indeed, local authority vans. I do not know what is happening elsewhere, but it is certainly a major problem in my part of the world.
