The First Deputy Chairman: Order. Again, I appeal to the Committee to come to order.
Mr. Gibb: Thank you, Mr. Martin.
Like all stealth taxes, the increase's effects will be capricious and unplanned. It will have a more severe impact on residential property in the south-east than elsewhere in the United Kingdom, and will hurt small businesses disproportionately more than large ones. If the Government are true to their rhetoric that the stamp duty increase is only about "cooling" the housing market, they should feel perfectly happy about accepting amendment No. 3, which would disapply the increase to business property. If they cannot accept the amendment, I urge the Committee to demonstrate its opposition to just another stealth tax by voting for the amendment.
Question put, That the amendment be made:--
The Committee divided: Ayes 126, Noes 308.
