PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
BENEFITS AND TAXATION POLICY AND LOWER INCOME GROUPS (24 May 2010)

That this House notes the continuing problems which affect many working families throughout the United Kingdom; recognises that socio-economic deprivation is very high in a number of areas including Northern Ireland, the North West and North East of England, and parts of Scotland and Wales; and expresses the hope that, as the new Coalition Government begins work on reforming the benefits and taxation system, incentives to those on lower incomes receive a much higher priority than raising tax thresholds and individual savings account limits for those on much higher income scales.
