I applaud my hon. Friend for bringing this debate to the Chamber.

I feel I am speaking up for the rest of Somerset, and perhaps the Minister might listen to this.

Indeed. Where are they, to speak up for themselves?

There is much to welcome in this Finance Bill and I am very pleased to be taking part in this fascinating debate.
