I thank the Member for giving way. Does he recognise that this is a debate on the Budget (No. 2) Bill and not on Budget policy? It is one thing to vote against Budget policy, but to vote against the Bill would mean that Departments had no statutory authority to draw down cash and would have less money as a result rather than more.
