There will be calls on this side of the Atlantic for the 12.5% corporation tax to be raised. The House should be alerted to the fact that extremely important implications are involved for the economy in the event of any change in the rules applying to multinationals and we should hold a debate on the matter. People should be warned that this is one of the most important parts of the economy. The Government should be aware of that and should take the necessary measures to protect us from any attack on that tax break.
