Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between James Murray and Liz Jarvis

Tuesday 10th March 2026 Commons Chamber

[Liz Jarvis (Eastleigh) (LD)]

T3. David, who owns the Steam Town Brew Co. in my constituency, tells me that his biggest concerns right now are inflation and the ability to plan ahead. What reassurance can the Minister give him that businesses in my constituency will be supported with the stability and certainty that they need?

[The Chief Secretary to the Treasury (James Murray)]

Businesses in the hon. Lady’s constituency, and indeed across the country, can know that, whatever instability we face in the world in the months and weeks ahead, the Government have done the right thing for the economy by bringing down inflation, interest rates, borrowing, debt and debt costs. All that puts us in the strongest possible position to be resilient going into the future.
