Tellers for the Noes :

Mr. Frank Haynes and

Mr. Allen McKay.

Question accordingly agreed to.

Mr. Speaker-- forthwith declared the main Question, as amended, to be agreed to.

Resolved,

That this House believes that almost every adult should make some contribution towards the cost of local services from which they benefit, with relief for the less well off ; welcomes the embodiment of those principles in the community charge ; notes that the scale and pattern of payments is related to ability to pay with 10 million people receiving rebates at a cost of £2.5 billion ; welcomes the willingness of the Government to listen to constructive suggestions for improving the new system with a view to prompt implementation of any necessary changes ; further notes that living under Labour costs people more ; and deplores the fact that the Labour Party have not had the courage or honesty to come forward with their own proposals before the local elections on 3rd May.
