Points of Order

Mary Creagh Excerpts

Tuesday 30th October 2012 Commons Chamber

[Mary Creagh (Wakefield) (Lab)]

On a point of order, Mr Speaker. During yesterday’s urgent question on ash dieback, we discussed the Government’s reductions to forest research, and I inadvertently misled the House. I said that they had cut it from £12 million to £7 million, but in fact the figure is £10 million. I hope that the House will accept my apology and that the record can be put straight.

[Mr Speaker]

I am sure that the House is extremely grateful to the hon. Lady. What she said is now on the record.
