Small Businesses (EDM928)

Small Businesses

EDM number 928 in 2006-07, proposed by Brian Binley on 21/02/2007.

That this House believes that small and medium-sized businesses are vital to the future of the UK economy; recognises that they generate over half the UK's national wealth and private sector jobs; notes that the twin burdens of regulation and an over-complex tax system have worsened considerably since 1997; further notes the absence of an effective voice for small businesses in Government; regrets that entrepreneurial activity has declined for the last two years; and calls on all Ministers to recognise and include the needs of small businesses in all policy making and implementation.

This motion has been signed by a total of 85 MPs.
