Finance Bill

Debate between Charlie Elphicke and Geoffrey Robinson

Wednesday 2nd July 2014 Commons Chamber

[Charlie Elphicke]

Will the hon. Lady rule out an increase in corporation tax under the next Labour Government, should one ever be elected—yes or no?

[Mr Geoffrey Robinson (Coventry North West) (Lab)]

We are not discussing that.

[Catherine McKinnell]

My hon. Friend makes a fair point: that is not what we are discussing. However, I am interested to know whether the hon. Gentleman will rule out slashing the annual investment allowance with no notice if the Conservatives are re-elected in 2015. Will he confirm that—yes or no?
