Finance (No. 4) Bill

Debate between Jim Hood and Alun Cairns

Wednesday 18th April 2012 Commons Chamber

[The Temporary Chair (Mr Jim Hood)]

I thank the hon. Lady for her point of order. It is not a point of order for the Chair if an opinion is expressed by an hon. Member. It is certainly not against the Standing Orders of the House.

[Alun Cairns]

If my remark caused offence to any Opposition Member, I will happily withdraw it. To rephrase what I said, the hon. Member for Pontypridd was inconsistent in his argument.

There is obvious uncertainty about the data that HMRC presents.
