Ministerial Statements (if any)
|
Preliminary Business
Ten minute rule Motion
1
|
INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS (VOTING PROCEDURES)
|
[Up to 20 minutes]
|
|
|
|
That leave be given to bring in a Bill to prohibit strike action in the emergency and transport service sectors unless a majority
of employees in the unionised workforce has voted in favour of such action; to make procedural provision in relation to balloting
for industrial action; and for connected purposes.
|
|
The Member moving and a Member opposing this Motion may each speak for up to ten minutes (Standing Order No. 23).
|
Main Business
†
|
2
|
FINANCE (No. 3) BILL: Second Reading
|
[Until any hour]
|
|
|
|
That this House declines to give the Finance (No. 3) Bill a Second Reading because whilst the Minister of State for the Cabinet
Office acknowledged that the country faces an ‘immediate national crisis in the form of less growth and jobs than we need’
this Bill does not address it; because the economic approach set out by the Government in this Bill puts jobs and growth at
risk; because the Bill cuts capital allowances to businesses who invest in growth; because the Office of Budget Responsibility
estimates that after all the measures in the Bill are taken into account the number of unemployed will be higher by up to
200,000 than forecast in November 2010; because the Bill fails to reverse the higher petrol prices faced by families as a
result of the Government’s VAT increase in January 2011; because it does not address the damage done to family living standards
caused by the wider tax and benefit changes this month; and because without a repeat of the bank bonus tax, the bank levy
alone will mean lower taxes for the banks at a time when families and children are bearing the brunt of the Government’s cuts
to household incomes.
|
|
The Tenth Report from the Treasury Committee on Budget 2011, HC 897, is relevant.
|
Debate may continue until any hour.
|
|
|
|
After Second Reading of the Finance (No. 3) Bill to move, That—
|
|
(1)
|
Clauses 4, 7, 10, 19, 35 and 72 be committed to a Committee of the whole House;
|
|
(2)
|
the remainder of the Bill be committed to a Public Bill Committee; and
|
|
(3)
|
when the provisions of the Bill considered by the Committee of the whole House and the Public Bill Committee have been reported
to the House, the Bill be proceeded with as if it had been reported as a whole to the House from the Public Bill Committee.
|
|
The Member moving and a Member opposing this Motion may each speak for up to ten minutes (Standing Order No. 63(3)).
|
†
|
3
|
FINANCE (No. 3) BILL
|
[No debate after 10.00 pm]
|
|
|
|
That the Finance (No. 3) Bill Committee shall have leave to sit twice on the first day on which it meets.
|
|
If opposed, this item cannot be taken after 10.00 pm.
|
†
|
4
|
SHORT SELLING AND CERTAIN ASPECTS OF CREDIT DEFAULT SWAPS
|
[No debate]
|
|
|
|
That this House takes note of European Union Document No. 13840/10 and Addenda 1 and 2, relating to the draft Regulation on
Short Selling and certain aspects of Credit Default Swaps, and No. 7379/11, relating to the corresponding Opinion of the European
Central Bank; and supports the Government’s position that proposals should not impact market efficiency and liquidity, in
particular in relation to sovereign debt.
|
|
To be decided without debate (Standing Order No. 119(11)).
|
†
|
5
|
REMOVING CROSS-BORDER TAX OBSTACLES
|
[No debate]
|
|
|
|
That this House takes note of European Union Document No. 5037/11 and Addendum, relating to the Commission Communication on
Removing cross-border tax obstacles for EU citizens; recognises the Government’s continuing commitment to strengthening the
single market while upholding the principles of tax sovereignty and subsidiarity; shares the Government’s view that any resulting
legislative proposals should be examined carefully for their implications for UK tax policy and competence; and supports the
Government’s position that decisions on tax proposals within the EU should be subject to unanimity.
|
|
To be decided without debate (Standing Order No. 119(11)).
|
At the end of the sitting:
|
Proposed subject: Funeral payments (Iain Stewart).
|
Debate may continue until 10.30 pm or for half an hour, whichever is later (Standing Order No. 9).
